Page "Jenny Lewis" Paragraph 5

Beginning with a country sound, Rilo Kiley gravitated toward a downbeat indie rock sound, gaining the attention of Warner Bros., who signed the band for the release ( via its own imprint, Brute / Beaute Records ) of their 2004 album More Adventurous, which gained the band some success.

Critics such as Pitchfork attributed this to the " wise " decision to emphasize Lewis's voice and presence more so than in previous albums.

The song " Portions for Foxes " was a hit.

The band opened for Coldplay on its U. S. tour in 2005.

Rilo Kiley's 2007 album Under the Blacklight was released directly by Warner Bros.
