The Black Keys will embark on an extensive North American tour this fall. Promoted exclusively by Live Nation, the tour begins September 5 in Columbus, Ohio, and runs through December, with dates at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre, Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, among others. See below for complete worldwide tour details. Citi® card members will have access to North American pre-sale tickets beginning Tuesday, May 13, at 10 AM local time through Citi’s Private Pass® Program. For complete details visit citiprivatepass.com. Pre-sale ticket access is also available with pre-orders of the band's new album, Turn Blue, in the Nonesuch Store and at theblackkeys.com/turnblue. Tickets go on-sale to the general public starting Friday, May 16, at 10 AM local time.
The tour supports the duo’s highly anticipated new album, Turn Blue, which will be released May 13 on Nonesuch Records and is now streaming exclusively on iTunes. In celebration of the release, the band will return to Saturday Night Live for their third musical guest appearance this Saturday, May 10.
Produced by Danger Mouse, Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney, Turn Blue comprises 11 new tracks, including the first single, “Fever,” which is currently #1 on AAA radio for the fourth straight week and #2 on Alternative radio. Additionally, the album’s title track recently premiered on Carney’s SiriusXM show, Serious Boredom, and can be heard here. Both songs are available as free instant downloads with album preorders in the Nonesuch Store and at theblackkeys.com/turnblue. The songs are also on sale—alone or as free instant downloads with album preorders—on iTunes.
