8. The Black Keys

8. The Black Keys - Brothers

The Black Keys is Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney from Akron, OH...this was The Black Keys' year, to say the least. They have catapulted to the next level in music stardom, all help to Danger Mouse producing their last record and their hit song (below) on this one. Hard core Memphis psychedelic blues rock is what these guys are known for and continue to pound out some funk laden grooves. If you haven't heard of these guys yet, then you have been missing out, but that's hard to believe given the media attention they have received this year.
