The Black Keys is an American rock band formed in Akron, Ohio, in 2001. The group members are Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney. Auerbach and Carney were friends since childhood and started the group after dropping out of college. This duo started from scratch recording music in basements and self-producing their records. As time passed hard work paid off and they became one of the most popular garage rock artists.
The Black Keys built an underground fanbase through extensive touring of small clubs, frequent album releases and music festival appearances, and broad licensing of their songs. Their third album, Rubber Factory, received lots of attention and made the band’s profile more outstanding. The attention this third album generated eventually led to a record deal with major label Nonesuch Records in 2006. After this group self-produced and recorded their first four records in makeshift studios, they completed Attack & Release in a professional studio with a producer called Danger Mouse, who ended up becoming a frequent collaborator.
This group took a long hiatus but now they are back on stage, performing and giving the best of themselves to their fans!
