The trek supports the band’s new album due on April 5th
The Black Keys has announced the 2024 North American International Players Tour in support of their new album, Ohio Players, out April 5th. The 31-date run, produced by Live Nation, kicks off in Tulsa, OK on September 17th and travels across the country to cities including New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, with two dates in the band’s home state of Ohio. The Head and The Heart will be joining the tour as direct support for select shows.
Presales start beginning Tuesday, April 2nd at 10 am local time ahead of the general on-sale beginning Friday, April 5th at 10 am local time via Ticketmaster.
The tour announcement follows two stand-out performances by The Black Keys at SXSW earlier this month, where they also debuted their new documentary This is a Film About The Black Keys to rave reviews. Ahead of this leg of the tour, The Black Keys will head to Europe to debut their new live show.
Ohio Players is set to be an album unlike any of the band’s others, featuring collaborations with friends and colleagues, including Beck, Noel Gallagher, Dan the Automator, Greg Kurstin, Juicy J, Lil Noid, and others. Listeners have gotten a taste of what to expect from the new project with the lead single, “Beautiful People (Stay High),” which recently reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart and AAA Airplay charts, and additional offerings “This Is Nowhere” and “I Forgot to Be Your Lover.”
