The Black Keys take side projects on tour, play the Triangle

The members of The Black Keys are setting out on their own this fall with their side/solo projects and it just so happens that they're both coming to the Triangle.

First, guitarist and singer Dan Auerbach is embarking on a new new leg of his solo tour in November. He will play the Cat's Cradle November 14 with Jessica Lea Mayfield opening the show. Tickets will go on sale "soon" via etix.com for $20. Auerbach's debut solo album Keep It Hid was released in February.

Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney started a new five-piece band featuring five drummers aptly named Drummer. Don't worry though, not all of them play drums in the band. Carney actually plays bass. The group will make a stop in Chapel Hill at Local 506 on October 14. The Royal Bangs will open the show. Tickets for the show will be $10, but are not currently available online. Drummer will release their debut album Feel Good Together on September 29.
