Jenny Lewis (born Jennifer Diane Lewis on January 8, 1976[1] in Las Vegas, Nevada) is an American singer, musician, and actress.

Lewis is a member and primary vocalist of the indie rock band Rilo Kiley, and has also released two solo albums. She is a former child actress.

[edit] Acting career

Lewis made her professional debut in a Jell-O commercial. She was featured in the short-lived 1986 Lucille Ball sitcom Life With Lucy, where she was cast as one of Lucy's grandchildren.[2] She also had small roles on such TV shows as The Twilight Zone, Baywatch, Golden Girls, Growing Pains, Just the Ten of Us, Roseanne, Mr. Belvedere, and Brooklyn Bridge.[2]

Lewis went on to appear in over a dozen teen-themed movies, such as Troop Beverly Hills, in the late 1980s and in 1989 starred in The Wizard. In the early 1990s.[2] She was featured in the 1996 made-for-TV movie Talk to Me with Yasmine Bleeth, as well as the films Foxfire, Big Girls Don't Cry... They Get Even, and Pleasantville.[2] She also played the part of Evangeline "Eva" Saint Claire in the 1987 film version of Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin.[2] She continued acting until 2001.[2]

[edit] Music

[edit] Rilo Kiley

In 1998, she and friends Pierre De Reeder, Blake Sennett and Dave Rock formed the band Rilo Kiley. (Rock was later replaced by Jason Boesel.) In an interview with NPR's All Songs Considered, Lewis remarked that she wanted to name the group Love's Way (after her parents' lounge act in Las Vegas), but Sennett "didn't go for it."[3]

Beginning with a country sound, Rilo Kiley gravitated toward a downbeat indie rock sound, and with its 2004 album More Adventurous found widespread success. Critics such as Pitchfork Media attributed this to the "wise" decision to emphasize Lewis's voice and presence more so than in previous albums. The song "Portions for Foxes" was a hit, and in 2005 the band was picked up by Warner Bros. (via its own imprint, Brute/Beaute Records), putting them on a major label for the first time. The band opened for Coldplay on its U.S. tour in 2005. Rilo Kiley's 2007 album Under the Blacklight was released directly by major label Warner Bros.

[edit] Other musical projects

In 2002, Lewis was asked to contribute some vocals for The Postal Service, whose album Give Up was an international success. Lewis performed in the video for the hit "We Will Become Silhouettes", and toured with the band in 2003. Lewis also contributed vocals to several tracks on the 2004 Cursive album The Ugly Organ.

In 2004, Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes invited Lewis to record a solo record for record label Team Love. Described by Lewis as "a kind of soul record," Rabbit Fur Coat (released January 24, 2006) features contributions from Oberst, M. Ward, and Maroon 5 guitarist James Valentine. Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie (and Lewis's bandmate in The Postal Service) guests on a cover of The Traveling Wilburys' "Handle With Care." The Watson Twins provide accompaniment on the album, billed as Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins. Lewis toured with the Watson Twins in support of the album three times in 2006 and appeared with her band on The Late Show With David Letterman, The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson, Late Night With Conan O'Brien and Later with Jools Holland. They also appeared on a Washington, D.C.-based children's music program called Pancake Mountain, performing the song "Fernando". The album received positive reviews, with Entertainment Weekly writing, "Consider Lewis the Emmylou Harris of the Silverlake set" and Rolling Stone commenting that "her girlishly seductive vocals are more versatile than ever." The Onion AV Club, Spin, and NPR music critic Meredith Ochs named it among the best albums of the year.[4][5]

In 2005, Lewis contributed to the UNICEF benefit song "Do They Know It's Hallowe'en?", along with Sennett and Jimmy Tamborello.

In 2007, Jenny Lewis contributed vocals to various songs on Johnathan Rice's album Further North, and she appeared in the music video for "We're All Stuck Out In The Desert (And We're Gonna Die)". She also provided vocals for a track on Dntel's Dumb Luck LP.

In 2008, she contributed backing vocals to several songs on the Elvis Costello and the Imposters album Momofuku. On February 8, 2008, Pitchfork reported that Lewis was returning to the studio to begin work on the follow-up to her 2006 solo LP with the Watson Twins, titled Acid Tongue.[6]

Also in 2008, Lewis provided the song "Barking at the Moon" in Disney's Bolt. [7]

Jenny Lewis作为来自美国洛杉矶的乐队Rilo Kiley的主唱,发表的每张专辑都大受Indie粉丝的欢迎和喜爱。Jenny Lewis的声线是吸引乐迷的主要因素,从第一首歌[A Better Son/Daughter]当中我们听到,前半部分做了Low-Fi处理的声音像是在你耳旁娓娓道来,可后半部分却突然变成在你面前怒吼!这种爆发力就是Jenny Lewis的特点,不是每个个人都具备,也不是想学就学得来的。

主唱Jenn Lewis、吉他手Blake Sennett、贝斯Pierre De Reeder 、鼓手Jason Boesel组成的indie rock band,准确些应该还包括indie pop和country folk,听起来,rilo kiley的声音非一般的清新,但个别的作品中,还是带有那么一点的硬朗,曲风上面,rilo kiley主要还是以nylon guitar为主,因此很多作品中,都总有些country folk的味道,再配合上柔弱而坚韧的声线,整体感觉上,rilo kiley的作品中我们不难去感受一种积极向上的氛围,或者一些令人兴奋的曲,听完,或许之前的不快乃至悲伤,都能的到短暂的缓解,没错,短暂的缓解.

Jenny Lewis现在单飞了,之前她作为RK的主音被大家广泛的喜爱着,由于有着孩般同成熟女性沙哑嗓音间游走的技巧,这次Rabbit Fur Coat给人以更不同的转变实际上并不应该令我们吃惊。

一个乐队的主音离开以前的乐队总是有很多种原因,Jenny的出走不知道该怎么去理解,她真的不像个看上去不安逸的人,也不像个会突然改变的人,不过,或许是这世界上的事我们不可能了解的那么清楚吧...她的音乐巧妙的融合了福音,乡村,民谣等多种感觉在里头,乍一听一定是无法定义,尽管Jenny总让人想起RK时候的她:The Charging Sky里的破音,Rise Up With Fists里的节奏,Rabbit Fur Coat里的温情;或者是一个你从不认识的Jenny:Happy里的轻柔,Melt Your Heart里的成熟,Hnadle With Care里的动感(好象是和Death Cab For Cutie的主唱合唱的)...

之前你可能不会觉得Jenny是十分有才的,因为她只是表现她或可爱或深沉的一面,但听过Rabbit Fur Coat后你会彻底改变这种看法,你会觉得她在某种程度上比的上The Arrogants的主唱Jana,有些歌听上去还同风格偏乡村的歌手Kathleen Edwards很像,尤其是在唱功上——一般Indie乐队的主唱总是被认为嗓音甜美或清澈,这张专辑中Jenny一改一贯的纯真风格,完美的展示出一张一位成熟女歌手的心血之作。

Jenny Lewis 真正为国人熟知,可能还是因为《闪电狗》的上映,片中Jenny Lewis唱的一首乡村味很浓的barking at the moon让人久久不能忘怀.
