The Black Keys have announced that they will be playing London’s 02 Arena as part of a UK tour this December.

The gig will be a massive deal for the band because other than festivals it’ll be their largest UK show to date so fans of their music wont want to miss out.

Taking place on 12th December the show is part of a five date UK tour which will also see them playing shows in Newcastle, Glasgow, Birmingham and Manchester.

It’s been a busy year for the Ohio based rock duo which is made up of Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney. Fresh from performing at Alexandra Palace The Black Keys headed out on several months worth of touring all over the world. They also found time to record a surreally brilliant video for their last single Gold On The Ceiling.

Tickets for the tour go on sale shortly so keep an eye on the bands website for more information.
