The Black Keys set U.K. dates, conquer fans at Xbox

The Black Keys are headed your way, and that collective “you” now includes listeners in the U.K. as well. The band has set six dates that span from Nottingham to Bristol.

The band has anything but slowed down since the April 1 stateside release of Attack and Release. Most recently the guys appeared on NPR’s World CafĂ© and on Zane Lowe’s BBC radio program. Prior to that, the duo took on fans in an Xbox live session. Not to mention their extensive tour of the U.S. and the start of their first run of dates in Europe.

We, and yes that is a royal “we,” highly recommend seeing Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney live. We implore you.
