Rilo Kiley - That's How We Choose To Remember It

Rilo Kiley — That's How We Choose To Remember It

"The directness of Rilo Kiley's storytelling aims straight for the heart." — Pitchfork

For the superfan and the curious alike, this is the band-curated entry point and career-spanning collection of songs from the one and only Rilo Kiley, who defined a generation and continues to influence indie rock to this day.

After a long absence, Rilo Kiley — Jenny Lewis, Blake Sennett, Jason Boesel, and Pierre "Duke" De Reeder — are back, with arms outstretched.

Throughout the years, a reunion "Felt like a possiblity, but it was never the right time," explains Boesel.

"Planning this reunion throughout these past months has been like reconnecting with family. We haven't missed a beat," says De Reeder. "The stakes are only to have a good time, to revel in this nostalgia. Getting to revisit and celebrate the music from that special time of our lives while experiencing it alongside a lot of people that lived it with us back when, and new folks alike."

The new album, That's How Chose To Remember It, is a collection of career-spanning songs that hit audiences with a breath of honest, fresh air.

"For some people, Rilo Kiley evokes a formative, emotional time in life, when you were maybe grasping for your place in the universe. We were too," says Sennett.

We've all got a memory or two with the songs of Rilo Kiley. Maybe belting "I Never" or requesting "The Frug" at a show in the early 2000s. This latest collection celebrates the music so deeply held by many of us. Here's to Rilo Kiley, their reunion, and the next generation of listeners to love this band as much as we do. Long live Rilo Kiley!
