Rilo Kiley, a significant Los Angeles rock band formed in 1998, recently reunited for their first shows in 15 years at the Just Like Heaven festival. Jenny Lewis, the band's lead singer, expressed joy at performing again, noting the significance of shared experiences with fans and bandmates. After disbanding amid personal and creative conflicts, their reunion represents a nostalgic return to an era of indie rock that shaped the landscape before digital music's rise. The festival highlights this longing for past musical experiences among attendees, showcasing early-2000s influence on contemporary artists.
"It's truly amazing to be here with you all," she told the crowd of thousands spread across the leafy grounds surrounding the Rose Bowl. "But mostly, it's amazing to be here with you all."
Rilo Kiley split amid creative and personal tensions between Lewis and Sennett, who'd also been romantically involved. Now, for the first time since 2008, the group - rounded out by Pierre De Reeder and Jason Boesel - is on the road playing shows again."
