Juliette Lewis Talks About The Licks Demise
Juliette Lewis talks to NME about the demise of The Licks and the evolution of The New Romantiques at SXSW 2009 in Austin. “The thing with The Licks was that I was always trying to keep it on the road,” she said. “Making records was secondary, so even the records we made, they were okay, but they were always better as a live band. So this is the first time I wanted to really take my time, and the only thing is the music has to be fueled by crazy passion and inspiration. If other people around you don’t have that, I can’t try to inspire everybody, that’s not my job. My job is just to be a songwriter.” Watch the interview via YouTube below.
