Blake Sennett Swendson (born September 22, 1973) is an American musician and actor who served as the lead guitarist for Rilo Kiley, as well as the lead singer/lead guitarist for his alt-rock side project the Elected.
Life and Career
Blake was born in San Diego, California. He attended La Jolla High School with his future Rilo Kiley bandmate Pierre de Reeder and graduated in 1991. He met Rilo Kiley bandmate Jenny Lewis through Tara Subkoff in 1993. In the early to mid-1990s, Blake played supporting roles of Salute Your Shorts and Boy Meets World. After Salute Your Shorts was canceled and his role on Boy Meets World was written off, Sennett switched gears and began to focus on music. He and Jenny formed Rilo Kiley in 1998 and dated for several years, until ending their relationship after the release of The Execution of All Things in 2002.
