Using jQuery to add class to containing li when a checkbox inside is clicked

Objective

Highlight (by adding a background-color to) the "row" <li> if a (nested) checkbox inside that row is clicked.

Background

In this feature I am working on the interface for a file management system. When a user clicks the checkbox they can then delete all the files checked. to give them visual feedback, i want all of their selected files to have a background color. This will be done by clicking a checkbox, then i want the <li> to be colored.

Current state

I found various helpful answers on stackoverflow but have a gap in knowledge and trying to fill that in. Most answers use the parent element. But that only helps me by coloring that specific parent that holds the checkbox.

Code

I have this demo on codepen

jQuery

$("#this-list :checkbox").on('click', function(){
    $(this).parent().toggleClass("checked");
});

CSS

.checked {
    background: red;
}

HTML

<div class="container">
    <ul id="this-list">

        <li>
            <div class="row">
                <div class="col-md-2">
                    <input type="checkbox" />
                    song.mp3
                </div>
                <div class="col-md-2">
                    2011
                </div>
                <div class="col-md-2">
                    1 gb
                </div>
                <div class="col-md-2">
                    2 min
                </div>
            </div>
        </li>

    <!-- More <li>s -->
    </ul>
</div>
