The Black Keys show off "Tighten Up" on Leno

by Ciaran Thompson

The Black Keys showed off the track “Tighten Up” on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night by delivering another excellent performance of one of the leading songs off their latest album Brothers. Not long ago they performed the same song on Letterman and this take is an exact replica of that in terms of flawlessness.

Brothers is the ‘blues rock’ duo’s sixth album and even though they’ve been a solid band for a awhile now stemming back to their releases early last decade, the mainstream music consortium has finally caught on and starting paying attention. This performance alone is a hint for anyone who hasn’t seen them play live to drop what you’re doing and check when they’re coming to a town near you. In fact, we’ll make it easy and tell you when The Black Keys are playing in Canada. Check the tour dates below.
