“When we’re together we are the Black Keys, that’s where that real magic is, and always has been since we were 16,” Auerbach said in statement. “The record is like a homage to electric guitar,” Carney added. “We took a simple approach and trimmed all the fat like we used to.”
“Let’s Rock” includes the previously shared “Lo/Hi.” The album was written, produced, and recorded live by Auerbach and Carney at Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville. It also features backing vocals from Leisa Hans and Ashley Wilcoxson.
The Black Keys’ previous LP was 2014’s Turn Blue. In September, the duo will kick off the “Let’s Rock” tour with Modest Mouse and Shannon and the Clams.
