Black Keys to bring blues-rock show to UK next year
Date Posted: 14/09/11
US blues-rock band the Black Keys are coming to the UK early next year as part of a European tour.
Comprised of Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney, the Ohio-based group will play their way around the continent with shows in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland and Holland before performing in front of those booking Edinburgh hotels at the city's Corn Exchange on Saturday February 4th.
During their stay in the UK they will also play gigs at Nottingham's Capital FM Arena, Manchester's O2 Apollo and London's Alexandra Palace.
The band have released six studio albums so far, with a seventh planned for later this year, and they are continuing to gain critical acclaim and recognition.
Last year's Brothers featured single Tighten Up, which is the band's most successful hit to date.
Another track from the album, Howlin' For You, was nominated in the 2011 MTV Music Video Awards for Best Rock Video earlier this year, bringing the band more exposure.
