The Black Keys will tape a performance for Austin City Limits on Monday, November 17, at ACL Live at The Moody Theater in Austin, Texas. The band will be making its second appearance on the PBS series Austin City Limits, the longest-running live music television series, now celebrating its 40th season. The Black Keys' Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney made their ACL debut in Season 36 around the release of their 2010 album Brothers. For information on how to get free passes to the show about a week before the taping, visit acltv.com and follow the show on Facebook and Twitter for notice of postings.

The Black Keys are currently in the midst of the latest North American leg of a world tour following the release of their latest album, Turn Blue, earlier this year.

The Calgary Herald, reviewing last night's show at the Saddledome, says they "deliver[ed] in a big, big way." Reviewer Mike Bell reports: "It felt like a club show, but was still large and in charge enough to satisfy those who were looking for something on a grander scale. And to their credit, it was entirely on the strength of the songs, and the tight, taut, tank-like performances of tunes that were written to blow minds and speakers with equal disregard and abandon."

To pick up a copy of Turn Blue, head to iTunes or the Nonesuch Store, where CD and vinyl orders include a free MP3 download of the complete album at checkout.

    David Longstreth’s Song of the Earth, a song cycle for orchestra and voices, is due April 4. Performed by Longstreth with his band Dirty Projectors—Felicia Douglass, Maia Friedman, Olga Bell—and the Berlin-based chamber orchestra s t a r g a z e, conducted by André de Ridder, the album also features Phil Elverum (Mount Eerie), Steve Lacy, Patrick Shiroishi, Anastasia Coope, Tim Bernardes, Ayoni, Portraits of Tracy, and the author David Wallace-Wells. Longstreth says that while Song of the Earth—his biggest-yet foray into the field of concert music—"is not a ‘climate change opera,’” he wanted to “find something beyond sadness: beauty spiked with damage. Acknowledgement flecked with hope, irony, humor, rage.”

    Composer Steve Reich talks about creating his 1970–71 piece Drumming—which the Village Voice hailed as “the most important work of the whole minimalist music movement"—in a new video from his publisher Boosey & Hawkes. Steve Reich and Musicians gave the world premiere performance of Drumming at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC in December 1971. Their 1987 Nonesuch recording is included in the forthcoming Steve Reich Collected Works, a twenty-seven disc box set, due March 14.
