New Artist: Rilo Kiley
Stat it up!
- Name of Band: Rilo Kiley
- Sound: Folk/pop, I guess? It’s a very indie, folky sound, although they were featured on MTV for a week, which still weirds me out. But anyway, very cool, very chill vibe from all of their music, with a lot of ironic lyrics, heartfelt singing, and catchy-as-hell refrains. “Science vs. Romance” for example, is a well-known resident to my brain, as it runs through it at least a few times every week.
- Location: Los Angeles, California
- Band Members:
- Jenny Lewis - Vocals/Keyboard
- Blake Sennett - Guitar/Vocals
- Pierre de Reeder - Bass
- Jason Boesel - Drums
- Official Website: rilokiley.com
- MySpace: myspace.com/rilokiley
- You May Remember Them From Such Songs As…: I’m not really sure where you may have heard them before. I guess the best known songs to me include “Portions of Foxes,” “The Moneymaker,” “Teenage Love Song,” and “A Better Son/Daughter.” They don’t really get a ton of radio play, which is a shame, but if you want to give a listen to any of the songs I just listed, two of which are on their MySpace, I’d say that it would be a good place to start.
- Next Performance: April 26th at Coachella
