The Black Keys dropped "Lo/Hi," the rockers' first song since 2014, near the start of 2019. This morning, they announced a 31-date North American tour.

The duo behind songs like "Lonely Boy" and "Howlin' for You" will be joined by Modest Mouse for all tour dates and also by *repeat repeat at the Denver show.

The tour starts Saturday, September 21, at Life Is Beautiful in Las Vegas. The second concert will be at Denver's Pepsi Center on Monday, September 23, and the tour will conclude in Vancouver on November 24.

In an effort to circumvent scalpers, the band is using Ticketmaster's Verified Fan platform. Register now through 8 p.m. Sunday, March 17, to participate in the presale, which will run from 10 a.m. Tuesday, March 19, through 10 p.m. Thursday, March 21.

General ticket sales begin at 10 a.m. Friday, March 22, at the Black Keys website.
