Rilo Kiley Announce Split


Indie pop band "Rilo Kiley" was announced split by their guitarist Blake Sennett on spinner.com.
The quartet consists of famous indie singer Jenny Lewis who had a successful solo career singing along side the Watson twins, Elvis Costello, and boyfriend Jonathan Rice on her last record "Jenny and Jhonny." Sennet worked on different projects as well like his side band "The Elected".

Sennet's explanation for the split is as follows: "I just felt like there was a lot of deception, disloyalty, greed and things I don't really want to submit myself to. I had related that frustration to music but I just thought, 'I'm not going to put myself in that position again,' so I said, 'Fuck that, I can't do this anymore.'"

"Rilo Kiley" released 5 studio albums during their long 13 year run. Their last album, "Under The Black Light", was dissed by Sennet saying that the album "was not our best album by far". He even intended to release a "two-disk set of 40 songs" as an appropriate last release for the band.
