The Black Keys, following the release of their critically acclaimed new album El Camino and a sold-out tour earlier this year, have announced new UK dates in December 2012. The tour includes concerts in Newcastle, Glasgow, Birmingham, and Manchester, culminating with a night at London’s O2 Arena on December 12. The tour also includes dates in Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Holland, and Germany. See below for details. Tickets go on sale for the UK shows this Friday, August 31, at 9 AM.

Released to widespread critical acclaim in December, El Camino debuted at # 2 on the Billboard Top 200 and has already been certified Platinum in Australia, Canada, Ireland, and New Zealand, and Gold in France, the UK and US amongst others. Produced by Danger Mouse and The Black Keys, the 11-track album was recorded in the band’s new hometown of Nashville during the spring of 2011. El Camino includes the hit single "Lonely Boy," the video for which has been viewed 17 million times on YouTube and nominated for an MTV Music Video Award (click here to vote for your favorite), as well as "Gold on the Ceiling," which the band recently performed with Johnny Depp at the 2012 MTV Movie Awards. The band closes out its European summer festival tour with a performance at the Reading Festival tonight.

    Silkroad and Rhiannon Giddens's 'American Railroad' Album Out Now

    American Railroad, the new album from the Silkroad Ensemble with Rhiannon Giddens, is out now. It is the culmination of four years of research, collaboration, and music-making, having brought Silkroad artists all across the US to uncover and uplift stories of those who built the transcontinental railroad and connecting railways across North America. "The result is a tapestry of stories, traditions, and music that have shaped our multifaceted cultural identity, and that must be heard and recognized," Giddens says. Also out now are a performance video of the track "Mahk Jchi" and the first episode of the American Railroad podcast series. The US fall tour continues to November 23.
