The Black Keys announce tour, stop in Triangle

The Black Keys will launch a big North American tour in late July after spending June "down under" in Australia and New Zealand. The duo just released a new album, Attack & Release, in April and are setting out play it for the masses.

The North American tour will include two North Carolina stops. The one that set off our radar is the Raleigh date at Disco Rodeo on October 5. Tickets for that date go on sale on June 13 for $22. The other North Carolina date is at the ever popular Orange Peel in Asheville. That show is on October 3.

Royal Bangs will open the Disco Rodeo show.
