Quick Facts: Rilo Kiley's been a darling of the indie scene since its inception in 1995. Formed by two former child actors, Jenny Lewis (Troop Beverly Hills, The Wizard) and Blake Sennett (Salute Your Shorts, Boy Meets World), the band has released four records and is due for a fifth release in spring, 2007.
