The Black Keys have a new album coming out May 13th via Nonesuch Records titled “Dropout Boogie“. We got the first look at it with the single “Wild Child,” which came with a playful video that found Patrick Carney and Dan Auerbach infiltrating a school and returning to their roots. Unlike “Wild Child,” the new song doesn’t come with a narrative music video, but it does find them lending a gravelly sheen to their bluesy basement-rock beginnings.
In honour of the new album, the duo will head out on a hefty 32-date tour, featuring Band of Horses as guests on all dates. Ceramic Animal, Early James, and The Velveteers will also appear on select runs of the tour.
