Rilo Kiley |
L.A.'s Rilo Kiley (featuring vocalist Jenny Lewis) will release Under the Blacklight on August 21 via Warner Bros. The follow-up to 2004's More Adventurous, the new album is produced by the band along with Jason Lader (Vietnam, Jay-Z) and Mike Elizondo (Dr. Dre, Fiona Apple).
The record label has this to say about the upcoming release:
On Under the Blacklight Lewis is fiery and unrestrained, no more so than on
"The Moneymaker." With the blood of Fleetwood Mac, early Heart and The Rolling Stones' 1978 dancefloor masterpiece "Miss You" pumping through its veins, Under The Blacklight is a gloriously decadent-sounding album, smooth dance beats balanced by the underlying lyrical motifs of the seedier side of Los Angeles life; the characters in the songs embroiled in everything from drunken one night stands to the sex industry. The album's lyrical theme is of the darker side of life as revealed by a nightclub blacklight, each song's character sharpened to a precise focus by Lewis' unique, undeniable approach... In many ways Under The Blacklight is a classic Californian love child and Rilo Kiley its ardent and vivacious young parents.
