Music/Film: The Black Keys - Live From Abbey Road
Check out the Sundance Channel's series "Live From Abbey Road" Thursdays at 10 PM. Above is a clip of The Black Keys' episode. The show is described on the Sundance Channel site as follows: "The world's most famous recording studio is the setting for this intimate music series featuring new and established performers. Created to suggest the visual quality of a movie and the carefully engineered sound of a commercial recording, LIVE FROM ABBEY ROAD captures artists without an audience as they rehearse, discuss and perform in the closed environment of a recording studio."
They've got another series that looks good as well. "Architecture School. Focusing on an innovative studio program at Tulane University, this six-part documentary series follows a group of fourth- and fifth-year architecture students as they design and build a single-family house in a low-income neighborhood of New Orleans devastated by Hurricane Katrina." Episode 1 is airing on August 20th at 9 PM.
The Black Keys are also featured on MTV2's "The Drop" today. Now go outside, and tell the world! I'm envious of all you lucky folks who are goin' to see 'em in Toledo tonight!

Music: The Black Keys - Attack & Release, out April 1!
YeeeeeeHaaaaaaaaa! The Black Keys are releasing a new album on April 1st. You can hear a couple of the new tunes on their myspace page.
Will Hermes from Rollingstone.com calls it "a psychedelic hybrid of vintage Southern R&B, brutish British Invasion rock, and country blues that calls to mind race-blurring Seventies badasses like Jim Ford and Tony Joe White."
Gas up the ride & grab a clean shirt, The Black Keys are back out on the road! These guys are freakin' amazin' live. Saw 'em last year in Austin, New Orleans and Memphis. If ya don't know, now ya know!
