Just what was Jenny Lewis up to in the six years between her 2008 solo album Acid Tongue and her most recent effort, The Voyager? Lewis has spoken in interviews about some of the emotional turmoil of those years, including the death of her father and severe struggles with insomnia. But in the most recent episode of the Above Average web series Sound Advice, which stars Saturday Night Live cast member Vanessa Bayer as a clueless media coach, Lewis offers an alternative explanation: “You have heard that weed is practically legal in California, right?”
Lewis, who is currently touring, ends up doling out more advice than she receives, but the two women touch on the ever-critical topics of gel manicures, the aftermath of Troop Beverly Hills and what it really means to be “just one of the guys.”
