The Black Keys Prank Call Their Record Label

The Black Keys are one of our favorite bands not only for their awesome music but also for their quirky sense of humor, and this week the band showed another example of that with a five-minute video they shared on YouTube of several prank calls they recently pulled on their record label. Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney made multiple attempts with the A&R departments at Nonesuch and Atlantic Records as a new-age band called Quartzazium. The whole thing is ridiculous and hilarious all in one and you can hear it above.

The Black Keys’ new album Turn Blue will be released May 13th. Pre-order the album at http://theblackkeys.com or iTunes and receive the single “Fever” and “Turn Blue” instantly.
