It will mark the rock duo’s third appearance on the show Both episodes should be worth watching, even if you only tune in for the music. Their newest album, Turn Blue (previewed here), is produced by Danger Mouse and will feature a mellower sound than previous Black Keys records.
Earlier this month, St. Vincent wooed audiences with her cover of “Lithium” by Nirvana, and now she’s taking her live act to the SNL stage. And back in February, she released a self-titled album on the 25th, after releasing the songs “Prince Johnny” and “Digital Witness” as previews, with the record garnering much critical acclaim.
Be sure to tune in to Saturday Night Live on May 10 and the 17 to catch both performances.
