Actors make their job look easy, and generally look pretty cool when doing it. It is inherent that with the skills and training provided through a career in acting that they extend their creative abilities into other avenues, such as music. I mean you watched Ray, right, and saw Jamie Foxx cover Ray Charles to near perfection through the entire film? If, like me, you thought, "well he's damn good, he could be a real life singer", you may not be shocked to learn that there is a growing number of actors dabbling in bands of various notoriety and skill.
