Jenny Lewis knows about the mainstream-- she started off her career as a child actor in late 80s and early 90s cult classics like Troop Beverly Hills. And now that little Hannah Neffler is all grown up, her band Rilo Kiley has signed to Warner Bros. It's not a huge shock, really, since the band has jumped to different labels for each of their three albums since first signing with Barsuk for their 2001 debut Take-Offs and Landings: Their second album, 2002's The Execution of All Things, bore the sensitive Saddle Creek logo, for instance, while their latest, More Adventurous, was self-released on their own Brute/Beaute imprint, and distributed via Warner Bros.

This, apparently, was but a foreshadowing of things to come. The band has just announced that the album will be given a proper reissue in the coming months by Warner Bros., and, we suspect, promoted accordingly. As for their thoughts on it, "It seemed like the time was right for us," singer Lewis told the Detroit News. "I don't know what sort of success that will bring us. That doesn't really concern me."

What does concern Lewis these days is a headlining tour throughout the Great United States that's wrapping up mid-month-- not to mention her solo LP, which she reportedly threw together in about six days with producer Mike Mogis. As previously reported on Pitchfork, that album, tentatively titled Rabbit Fur Coat, will see release via Conor Oberst's new Team Love label before the year's end.
