The Black Keys

In August 2011, The Black Keys were riding a wave of success following their album 'Brothers,' which was released just a year prior. This album marked a significant turning point in their career, introducing a broader audience to their gritty blues-rock sound and winning three Grammy Awards. During this live performance at the Outside Lands Music Festival in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, the duo showcased fan-favorites like 'Howlin' For You,' a track that features catchy hooks and an undeniable groove. Interestingly, this recording came as the band was ramping up for the release of their next album, 'El Camino,' which was only a few months away. It’s fascinating to consider how the energy of live performances like this fueled their creative process, ultimately leading them to greater heights in the music scene.
