The Black Keys Announce Peaches ‘n Kream World Tour
Today, GRAMMY award-winning rock duo The Black Keys announce their PEACHES ‘N KREAM WORLD TOUR ‘26, kicking off on April 24th with stops in major cities including New York, Chicago, Nashville, London, Paris, Milan and more. All supporting acts for the tour come from the stable of Dan Auerbach’s own Easy Eye Sound record label, with artists varying per city. Artist pre-sale starts Thursday, February 12th at 10am local. General on-sale starts Friday, February 13th at 10am local. Tickets available here.
Last week, The Black Keys returned with their new single “You Got To Lose” from their upcoming album Peaches! set for release on May 1st via Easy Eye Sound/Warner Records. Pre-order/save Peaches! here.
The Black Keys are hitting the road again after their hugely successful No Rain, No Flowers tour last year, which saw the band sell over 250,000 tickets across North American & Europe, including sell out shows at iconic venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre, Zitadelle Spandau in Berlin and London’s Alexandra Palace Park.
Citi is the official card of the PEACHES ‘N KREAM WORLD TOUR. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Wednesday, February 11 at 10am local time until Thursday, February 12 at 10pm local through the Citi Entertainment program. For complete presale details visit www.citientertainment.com.
Peaches!, the band’s fourteenth studio album, is a visceral and raw 10-song collection described by singer Dan Auerbach as the band’s “most natural record” since their 2002 debut, The Big Come Up. The project was born in the wake of Auerbach’s late father’s diagnosis of esophageal cancer, as he was staying in Dan’s Nashville home, in rapid decline. Patrick Carney, Dan’s Black Keys bandmate and oldest, closest friend, knew without asking “that it would be good for Dan to have something to do.” That something, of course, was to head into the studio and crank up the amps.
“We weren’t making a record. We were just jamming, like this is for us,” Dan Auerbach says. “Really primal, in a moment when all the nerves were raw, just kinda screaming. We were going through a lot, trying to lift our spirits. I think my dad getting sick made me not give a fuck and just wanna scream for a bit.”
In similar DIY spirit to their debut, the album was recorded with all musicians playing in the same room with very few overdubs, and is the first album mixed entirely by the band themselves since 2006’s Magic Potion.
“Everything was all cut live in one with no separation, including vocals,” adds Patrick Carney. “It was a nightmare to mix but we got it sounding raw and filthy.”
“Shitty is pretty,” Dan adds.
The songs on Peaches! reflect Dan and Patrick’s obsessive record-collecting habit, which in recent years has escalated into an ongoing series of Record Hang DJ-set dance parties. These hangs fueled a deeper period of musical archaeology for both of them. “I’d look for 45s specifically to play at the record hangs,” Dan says, “but sometimes I’d find a song and think, ‘This might be fun for Pat and me to play live.’”
Peaches! cover art is illustrated with an image by the iconic Memphis-born photographer William Eggleston, a hero of the band’s who also provided the cover shot for their 2021 album, Delta Kream. This album also sees Patrick’s brother, Michael Carney, designing and art-directing the package as he did similarly with early Black Keys albums, notably winning a GRAMMY award for the Brothers cover. Peaches! will be available on vinyl, CD, cassette and digitally — pre-order/save here.

Beck Announces Ride Lonesome Single & Tour
Yesterday, eight-time GRAMMY winner Beck unveiled the stunning new surprise single, “Ride Lonesome.”
Today, Beck follows that hypnotically sublime ballad with the announcement of the Ride Lonesome Tour, a 25-date trek stopping at some of North America’s most renowned theaters and amphitheaters.
The Ride Lonesome Tour, promoted by Live Nation, will kick off September 16 at Vancouver’s Queen Elizabeth Theatre, with stops including the Santa Barbara Bowl, the Greek in L.A., Red Rocks, two nights each at The Masonic in SF, Massey Hall in Toronto and the Brooklyn Paramount, and more, before concluding October 31 at The Truth in Nashville.
Tickets for Beck’s Ride Lonesome Tour go on sale Friday, April 24 at 10am local time. For further information, go to Beck.com.
Produced by Beck and Mixed by Nigel Godrich, the song “Ride Lonesome” evokes the beautiful and haunting sonic landscapes and textures of 2015 Album of the Year GRAMMY winner Morning Phase and its spiritual predecessor, 2002’s classic Sea Change—and features multiple musicians who played on those milestone releases. From the resonant acoustic guitar strains of its opening to the emotional peaks of its final chorus, this long-awaited new original composition is the first indication of a different yet familiar direction for Beck in the year ahead.
Citi is the official card of the Beck: Ride Lonesome Tour. Citi cardmembers will have access to presale tickets beginning Tuesday, April 21 at 11am local time until Thursday, April 23 at 10pm local time through the Citi Entertainment program.
