| Jenny Lewis (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Blake Sennett (guitar, vocals), Pierre de Reeder (bass), and Dave Rock (drums, later replaced by ex-Lassie Foundation member Jason Boesel) formed Rilo Kiley in 1998 in Los Angeles. Three years after its formation, the band released Take Offs and Landings on the Barsuk label. The supporting tour found the band opening for the Breeders, Pedro the Lion, and Superchunk. Rilo Kiley's follow-up, The Execution of All Things appeared on Saddle Creek in fall 2002. The quartet earned major-label distribution (through Warner) for their third album, 2004's More Adventurous. ~ Kenyon Hopkin, All Music Guide |
