The Black Keys are singer\/guitarist Dan Auerbach and drummer Patrick Carney. Last year, the duo received its 14th Grammy nomination, this time for Best Contemporary Blues Album for Delta Kream, which was released in May 2021 by Nonesuch Records. The project, which features 11 Mississippi hill country blues songs by artists such as R.L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough, was the band\u2019s fifth consecutive top 10 debut on The Billboard 200. Pitchfork said of the album, \u201cBy spending the time playing the blues that\u2019s buried deep in their soul, the Black Keys reveal how far they\u2019ve gone in a space of 20 years,\u201d while the UK\u2019s Independent said, \u201cThe blues flow through The Black Keys\u2019 music as steady as the Mississippi River. Now they\u2019re going right to the source on Delta Kream, a sweltering collection of some of their favourite hill country blues standards. The fact they\u2019re exploring such familiar territory is to the album\u2019s benefit. The Black Keys know this music as well as their own. Delta Kream celebrates true musicianship. A soundtrack for those hot and heady nights of late summer. It\u2019s brilliant.\u201d Delta Kream also made Best of 2021 lists from several publications, including both Uncut and Mojo.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Most recently, The Black Keys released the Super Deluxe 10th anniversary edition of their landmark seventh studio album, El Camino<\/a> in late 2021. El Camino was produced by Danger Mouse and The Black Keys and was recorded in the band\u2019s then-new hometown of Nashville during the spring of 2011. The Black Keys won three awards at the 55th annual Grammys for El Camino\u2014Best Rock Performance, Best Rock Song, and Best Rock Album\u2014among other worldwide accolades.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Formed in Akron, Ohio in 2001, The Black Keys have been called \u201crock royalty\u201d by the Associated Press and \u201cone of the best rock \u2018n\u2019 roll bands on the planet\u201d by Uncut. Cutting their teeth playing small clubs, the band have gone on to sell out arena tours and have released nine previous studio albums: their debut The Big Come Up (2002), followed by Thickfreakness (2003) and Rubber Factory (2004), along with their releases on Nonesuch Records, Magic Potion (2006), Attack & Release (2008), Brothers (2010), El Camino(2011), Turn Blue (2014) and \u201cLet\u2019s Rock\u201d (2019), plus a 10th anniversary edition of Brothers (2020).The band has won six Grammy Awards and a BRIT and headlined festivals in North America, South America, Mexico, Australia, and Europe.<\/p>\n
