The Black Keys
"You'll be on my mind
Don't give yourself away
To the weight of love".
When I think of rock and roll music, I think of guys strumming their guitars and banging on the drums in a garage dreaming of one day making it big. Please meet Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney or better known as; The Black Keys. The dynamic duo became friends at a young age and found a love for music in their pastime. They started their humble beginnings in Akron, Ohio and both decided to drop out of college and pursue their dreams of making a career in the music industry.
The two have been known as 'The Black Keys' since 2001 and found their claim to fame in 2010 with the album, Brothers. The duo gained a large underground fan base from the start through touring at clubs and music festival appearances. The album; 'Brothers' also won 3 Grammy Awards. In 2011, the duo started their arena tour and also landed a number 2 spot on the Billboard's top 100 hits.
I came across The Black Keys during a very intense family game of Guitar Hero. The easiest song was "Lonely Boy" by The Black Keys. Later, I grabbed their album and immediately fell in love with the indie rock band. The upbeat tempo of their music has a positively contagious feeling that no one in the audience can deny.
I was lucky enough to attend the concert and they absolutely blew my mind. The set changed every three songs and it seemed to change the vibe in the arena each time. Another great performance by 'The Black Keys' and I look forward to the future of their music.
