Dan Auerbach - Chicago 3/6/2009

I was lucky enough to grab a pair of tickets to Dan Auerbach’s Friday night show at Metro last week right before it sold out. The Black Keys singer’s new solo album Keep It Hid is one of the most consistent and overall satisfying pieces of music that I’ve listened to in recent memory. Auerbach pretty much played the album in its entirety.
The bluesy-rock stuff (When I Left The Room, The Prowl, Street Walkin’) is great, but my favorite songs are the quieter, more soulful numbers (Trouble Weighs A Ton, Whispered Words, When The Night Comes).
Here’s some video I took during the show - one of each.
