·樂隊名字的由來·
四個年輕人將自己的樂隊名為Rilo Kiley,這個名字常常會讓人誤以為是個獨唱歌手,其實它來源於一個相當悲傷的真實故事:Ben Rilo和Stephen Kiley曾是一所中學裡的一對同性戀人,後來被學校開除,在兩人最後一次纏綿過後,他們選擇在家鄉附近的鐵軌上臥軌而死。樂隊成員為了紀念這兩個男孩,便取了他們的姓氏作為自己的樂隊名稱。
樂隊問答
Q. How did they get their name?
A. There are a few theories on this, but not really a definitive answer. Pierre and Jason both insist that "Rilo Kiley" has no real meaning, but most fans suspect it does and they just wanna keep it secret. Some say they just picked it randomly and liked the way it sounded. Some say it's a switch-a-roo on the common Irish name Kyle O'Riley. Dave Rock once claimed during a radio interview that Rilo Kiley was the name of a pair of siamese twins from the early 20th century.. and that they picked it as the name due to something about the bandmembers being so close and never being separated (ironically, he left the band not long after!). Another theory is it was the name of a Scottish architect. Some say it's named after an imaginary pet dragon Blake had as a child. Okay, I made that last one up.
An article in Performer Magazine (2001) said this..
[T]he band got their name from a the tragic tale of two exiled, gay, high school football players, Ben Rilo and Stephen Kiley, who committed suicide in 1909 on the railroad tracks just outside of their mid-western town after making love for the last time. As a tribute to the two young men the band members adopted the name Rilo Kiley, which is also the name of the crossing where the two young men met their end.
Huh? Seriously? Who knows. That's a sad story.
Here's a another little story, this from Rilo fan, Eric..
At the Westwood in-store show we asked [what the name meant]. Jenny actually. She started to say how it was about some dream Blake had had once, he was packing up equipment on the other side of the stage, overheard, and yelled over not to listen to her, that she was just messing with our heads. So she said, she'd wanted to name them after her parent's band in the 70's "Love's Way", but that we'd have to ask Blake about Rilo Kiley. So we marched over to him a little later, and he claimed it was after some innovative architect he'd gotten into at the time. I like the dream story better myself.
And Lauren adds, "I think jenny often makes up stories when people ask her about where the name Rilo Kiley came from. I asked her at a show about a year ago, and she told me that they got it from a Jethro Tull song!"
