The Black Keys Line Up May Release For Blues Covers Album Delta Kream Friday, 16 April 2021
The Black Keys have shared details of their 10th studio album. Delta Kream will arrive on May 14 via Nonesuch Records and feature 11 Mississippi hill country blues staples that inspired Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney, including songs by R. L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough, among others.
The pair recorded the LP at Auerbach s Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville, where they were accompanied by Kenny Brown and Eric Deaton, longtime musicians from bands of legendary blues acts. Auerbach said: We made this record to honor the Mississippi hill country blues tradition that influenced us starting out. These songs are still as important to us today as they were the first day Pat and I started playing together and picked up our instruments. It was a very inspiring session with Pat and me along with Kenny Brown and Eric Deaton in a circle, playing these songs. It felt so natural.
