Best band with an actor or actress?

[Sir HC]

This Juliette Lewis thread got me thinking.  Now we are talking actors who then did bands, not a musician who then acted (so this discounts The Clash, Richard Hell, FEAR, Bongwater...)
 
 For my money it is Johnny Depp's band with Gibby Haynes, P.

Not that I would vote for Bongwater -- but I thought Ann Magnuson had been an actress for a while before the band formed?

Rilo Kiley
 
 plus, Shelby Lynne is going to playing Johnny Cash's mom in the new Johnny Cash movie. Does that count?

I thought that she did performance art and then after Bongwater really got into acting including a role on a tv show.  
 
 Then again her resume does go back pretty far:

Can I just assume that Viggo Mortensen played with X during his "poetry days" as a struggling actor at least once and say X?

That's funny.  I was hoping nobody would say Keanu Reeves, Shatner or Russel Crowe.
