Our dear Juliette Lewis is preparing a new album to follow “Terra Incognita”, released in 2009 and produced by Omar Rodrigues-Lopes (The Mars Volta).

During the interview given to our website in partnership with Tenho Mais Discos Que Amigos! In May, Lewis said she wants to invite Linda Perry (who took care of the “Like a Bolt of Lightning” EP) to produce it.

The composing and recording sessions with Perry began in the end of June and, apparently, the results are going to be different than what Lewis has done before. According to herself, ”the ‘new sound’ involves a lot of fuzzed out base, some electronic beats and ‘A Whole Lotta Rock n’ roll’ fever!”.

Lewis also said that her second solo album is going to be mysterious, contagious and more captivating: with captivating choruses and simple riffs. She also announced the title of two tracks: “Rockaway” (the chorus is filled with “ooh oohs”) and “Kick Drum Song” (she plays bass drum on this one).

To make us even more curious and counting the days for the release of the album or maybe to listen to a teaser, the participation of Dave Grohl in the album was more than confirmed (he was also responsible for the drums in the “Four on the Floor” album). This week Linda Perry posted a photo in her twitter account next to Lewis and the Foo Fighters’ leader saying: “Whoa!!!! Awesome visit from Dave Grohl. He just played on Juliette Lewis’ song”.

Another special guest in the album, who was confirmed in our interview, is the dear guitarist Kemble Walters, who played in Juliette and the Licks until one year before the band broke up in 2008.

There’s still no title for the album or a release date, but we’ll let you know as soon as we have more details about it.

By the way, Juliette Lewis is also involved in another Linda Perry’s project. On July 28th she posted in her twitter account that she is very inspired and writing lyrics to a new song of the eternal interpreter of “What’s Up?”.

Lewis also participated in the video clip for the single “Can’t Getcha Out Of My Mind” from Deep Dark Robot, a project Perry has with Tony Tornay (Fatso Jetson). She played one of her most remarkable characters: Mallory Knox from “Natural Born Killers”. The video, shot two months ago, has no release date yet.
