Hear This...The Black Keys- Run Right Back

On the eve of their highly anticipated 7th full length album, El Camino, the Black Keys released a fantastic new track 'Lonely Boy' alongside a similarly fantastic video showcasing some of the best dance moves I've ever seen.  On that note, listeners were given another single of the new album titled 'Run Right Back.' With a similar upbeat tempo to 'Lonely Boy' and in contrast to some of their previous work, we can get a sense that the new album will be something a little different. But with these two singles to show for what's ahead, I don't see this as a bad thing at all. Unfortunately, no new video for this one.

Useless Clatter...Mysterious Black Keys Dancer Revealed

A few weeks ago I posted the Black Key's new single 'Lonely Boy' with a goofy video of a man dancing and lip singing the entire song to perfection. Well fame arose from this man's moves as he appeared on The Ellen Degeneres Show recently for an interview and dance demo with Ellen. His name is Derrick Tuggle and apparently he is a struggling actor pursuing his dreams and trying to make it big in Hollywood- quite a guy. I still say he's an excellent dancer. See for yourself.

Hear This [Audiovisuals]...Foster the People "Call It What You Want" | "Helena Beat"

I'll admit to being late on these two, but if you haven't already heard, Foster the People came out with two new singles earlier this week. After the big buzz that formed behind "Pumped Up Kicks"  and "Houdini" earlier this year, I'm not surprised how similar these songs are to the two previous singles.  But why fix what's not broken?  There's no doubt everyone will be pleased with these tracks, so take a listen and watch the official music videos too.
