About the Artist

Formed in Akron, Ohio, in 2001, The Black Keys, comprised of Dan Auerbach (vocals, guitar) and Patrick Carney (drums), have carved out a unique space in modern rock music. Their journey from gritty garage band to Grammy-winning superstars is a testament to their unwavering dedication to authentic blues-infused rock and roll. Early albums like 'The Big Come Up' and 'Thickfreakness' showcased their stripped-down, lo-fi aesthetic, earning them a cult following. However, it was their breakthrough album 'Brothers' in 2010, featuring the smash hit 'Tighten Up', that catapulted them into the mainstream. This was followed by the critically acclaimed 'El Camino' in 2011, which solidified their status with anthems like 'Lonely Boy' and 'Gold on the Ceiling'. Over the years, The Black Keys have consistently delivered powerful albums, including 'Turn Blue', 'Let's Rock', and their most recent offering, 'Dropout Boogie', each exploring different facets of their signature sound while maintaining that undeniable Black Keys grit. Their live shows are legendary, a no-frills explosion of energy, blistering guitar solos, and pounding rhythms that honour the blues roots of rock music. Expect a setlist packed with fan favourites and newer material, all delivered with the intensity that has become their hallmark.
