The Black Keys are an American blues rock duo that was founded in 2001 in Akron, Ohio. Comprised of Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney, the band has gained a loyal following with their raw and gritty sound. Influenced by classic blues artists such as Junior Kimbrough and R.L. Burnside, The Black Keys have crafted their own unique style that blends elements of garage rock, soul, and psychedelic music. With their powerful guitar riffs and infectious melodies, they have become one of the most successful rock bands of the 21st century.
Since their formation, The Black Keys have released numerous critically acclaimed albums including "Brothers," "El Camino," and "Turn Blue." Their music has garnered widespread praise for its authenticity and emotional depth. Known for their energetic live performances, the duo has toured extensively around the world, captivating audiences with their electrifying stage presence.
With multiple Grammy Awards under their belt, The Black Keys continue to push boundaries and evolve as artists. Their latest album "Let's Rock" showcases a return to their roots while still exploring new sonic territories. Whether you're a longtime fan or just discovering them for the first time, The Black Keys' music is sure to leave a lasting impression.

The Black Keys release their tenth studio album, Delta Kream, via Nonesuch Records. The record celebrates the band’s roots, featuring eleven Mississippi hill country blues standards that they have loved since they were teenagers, before they were a band, including songs by R. L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough, among others. Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney recorded Delta Kream at Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville; they were joined by musicians Kenny Brown and Eric Deaton, long-time members of the bands of blues legends including R. L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough. The album takes its name from William Eggleston’s iconic Mississippi photograph that is on its cover. In addition to paying homage to these Mississippi blues legends with Delta Kream, The Black Keys are working with VisitMississippi, the state's tourism organization, to sponsor new individual markers for R. L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough on the Mississippi Blues Trail, which tell the stories of the state’s blues artists both renowned and obscure through words and images. (Both musicians are currently acknowledged on a group marker in Holly Springs entitled "Hill Country Blues.") The new markers will be erected in the proposed locations of Holly Springs and Chulahoma, MS, places closely associated with Burnside and Kimbrough—a fitting tribute to these architects of Hill Country Blues and further recognition of their enduring contributions to American music.
