The Black Keys are entering another pop crossover phase — or at least they’re trying to. The Akron-native duo are coming back this spring with a new album called Ohio Players. In a Mojo report last year, they called it “our Saturday-night party record.” Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney took inspiration for the album from deejaying dance parties with their own collection of 45s. “What we wanted to accomplish with this record was make something that was fun,” Carney says in the album’s official bio. “And something that most bands 20 years into their career don’t make, which is an approachable, fun record that is also cool.”
