You may not expect that Rilo Kiley would be high on Jen Cray's list of must-see live bands, but after their recent takeover in Orlando they most definitely are up there!
RILO KILEY GRAND OLE PARTY, ART IN MANILA House of Blues, Orlando, Fl Oct. 2, 2007 by Jen Cray I expected Rilo Kiley to be good live, but I was not expecting them to be as good as they were.

Now, he pulls the tour bus up to the Holy Land of country music, the Ryman Auditorium (the original Grand Ole Opry), invites a few friends (Travis Tritt, John Anderson), and belts out a few.

This Is How I Found You (Rock Park/Addictive). Review by Matthew Moyer.
... CocoRosie and Helium when they were terrifying. This Is How I Found You is an album that sounds time-capsule ancient, like a bootleg recording of a Grand Ole Opry radio broadcast -- warm and intimate and analogue and whole, with the seductive swagger and swing that can only come from live performance ...
