The Black Keys return to the road this week with another headlining gig: Coachella. The band plays the Coachella stage at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, both this Friday night and next, while Radiohead and Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg headline Saturday and Sunday, respectively. The Black Keys headline another festival, Edgefest 2012, in Dallas later this month before heading out for the next leg of their North American arena tour, featuring music from their latest Nonesuch album, El Camino. Special guests Arctic Monkeys return for that leg of the tour.

Amadou & Mariam's Lollapalooza set comes amidst the Malian duo's own North American tour, which so far includes previously announced stops in Boston, Montreal, and Minneapolis. Stay tuned for more dates to come.
