Juliette Lewis’ band renamed as The New Romantiques

Washington, Mar 03: Juliette Lewis’s band The Licks has undergone a name change and boasts of a new line-up called The New Romantiques.

The actress-turned-rocker, who formed the band in 2004, had formed a new act after the group split last year.

And the 35-year-old has no complaints about it since it has only worked in favour of her new album, Terra Incognita.

"Because this album is so sonically different than anything I`ve done before and captures many flavours of my emotional life and voice, it needed an entirely new name,” Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

"Terra Incognita means unknown territory - and that’s where I wanted to go musically.

“It took me five years to really cut my teeth both as a performer and as a songwriter and I wanted to break all the habits I`d gotten used to," she added.
