Now we know where the name for The Black Keys‘ Dropout Boogie tour comes from.

As promised, the “Lonely Boy” rockers premiered a new single called “Wild Child” overnight. But that wasn’t all: they also announced a new album, titled Dropout Boogie.

The follow-up to 2021’s blues covers compilation Delta Kream will arrive May 13. Dropout Boogie will be the first original Keys record since 2019’s “Let’s Rock”.
