Black Keys are heading back out on the road this week to start their second leg of their tour of North America, supported by

This leg of the tour begins at BB&T Center in Sunrise, Florida, and makes stops in Orlando, Raleigh, Atlanta, Houston, Austin, Fort Worth, Phoenix, San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, Tacoma, and Vancouver. "It's all about the groove and being able to lock in to all those guitars," Dan Auerbach tells Rolling Stone about putting together the setlist for the tour. "It's just fun."

The
Black Keys' ninth studio album, "Let's Rock," was released in June via Easy Eye Sound/Nonesuch Records. "From top to bottom, the 12-track 'Let's Rock' holds tight to captivating instrumentation, with guitar at the center," says the Associated Press. "The
Black Keys are rock royalty and to the relief of many, they aren't quite ready to relinquish their reign." "
Let's Rock" is available on all formats here.
