When we saw Jenny Lewis having dinner at Ly Michaels before her show at the Troc, we had to resist the urge to fold her up and try to squeeze her in our oversized bag. So. Damned. Cute.

This Phillyist hearts Rilo Kiley. Jenny Lewis is our long-standing girl crush. So we're pumped for tonight, when they'll be at the Tower Theatre, touring after their new album, Under the Blacklight.

Although I was at Johnny Brenda's on Friday specifically to review The Comas, I really went because they were co-headlining with The Broken West, who I've been big on since I first heard "Brass Ring," their first single off of . Opening for them was Nethers, whom Pencopal had told me, prior to the concert, that she loves. Unfortunately, either we have more disparate tastes in music than I thought, or Nethers was having an off night. I liked the band's music fine, and thought that their lead singer did kind of suggest Jenny Lewis, as Pencopal had noted, but I found their performance to be a little too low-energy and unpolished. There was nothing interesting or compelling enough to help me see what some of the others in the audience were so psyched about. There's potential there, sure, but not much yet in the way of execution.
