Presumably, nobody was asking, "Who the fuck are The Black Keys?!" after the Grammy Awards because Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney will embark on a Canadian tour in June that will see them play the largest venues they've ever played in the country.
The Black Keys head out across Canada beginning June 27 in Vancouver and wrap up the jaunt July 12 in London, Ont. Kentucky's Cage The Elephant will open the dates. Tickets go on sale Saturday through Ticketmaster and Live Nation.
The Black Keys won two Grammy Awards earlier this month; the Akron, Ohio duo picked up trophies for best rock performance by a duo or group and best alternative album for last year's Brothers.
