The newest album from Rhiannon Giddens', You're the One is her third solo studio album and her first of all original songs. This collection of 12 songs written over the course of Giddens' career bursts with life-affirming energy, drawing from the folk music that she knows so deeply, as well as its pop descendants. Produced by Jack Splash (Solange, Alicia Keys, Valerie June), You're the One features some of Giddens' closest musical collaborators from the past decade, including multi-instrumentalists Francesco Turrisi and Dirk Powell, bassist Jason Sypher, and Congolese guitarist Niwel Tsumbu. The album features electric and upright bass, conga, Cajun and Piano accordions, guitars, a Western string section, and Miami horns, among other instruments, capturing the inclusive spirit that channels through all of her work. <br/><br/>"I hope that people just hear American music," Giddens says. "Blues, jazz, Cajun, country, gospel, and rock-it's all there. I like to be where it meets organically. They're fun songs, and I wanted them to have as much of a chance as they could to reach people who might dig them but don't know anything about what I do. If they're introduced to me through this record, they might go listen to other music I've made with a different set of ears."

The Black Keys' twelfth studio album, "Ohio Players" - a title inspired by the legendary funk band of the same name from Dayton, Ohio - features several collaborations between band members Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney with various friends and colleagues, such as Dan "The Automator" Nakamura, Beck, Noel Gallagher, Greg Kurstin and others. "We had this epiphany: 'We can call our friends to help us make music,'" says Carney. Auerbach adds, "No matter who we collaborate with, it never feels like we're sacrificing ourselves. It just feels like it adds a special touch... But when it came time to finish the album, it was just Pat and me."

Albumet är producerat av Danger Mouse och The Black Keys. De elva låtarna till albumet spelades in i sångaren/gitarristens Dan Auerbach "Easy Eye Sound Studio" i killarnas nuvarande hemstad Nashville.<br/><br/>I maj 2010 släppte bandet sitt kritikerrosade "Brothers" som blev duons genombrott. De vann tre Grammy-awards, MTV Music Award och toppade listor över årets bästa skivor runt om i världen. Albumet gav oss två hitsinglar med "Tighten Up" och "Howlin' for you". Albumet har sålt över en miljon exemplar världen över.<br/><br/>Trummisen Patrick Carney reflekterar över bandet utveckling, "We've taken the long road to get where we are. It's pretty cool to be in your early 30s making music with your best friend. We've experienced everything from driving a thousand miles to play for no one to winning Grammys."<br/>The Black Keys bildades i Akron av Dan Auerbach och Patrick Carney. De släppte sitt debutalbum "The Big Come Up" år 2002. Sedan dess har de släppt två album till innan de började samarbeta med Nonesuch Records i USA. <br/><br/>Rolling Stones Magazine kallar The Black Keys för "a two man combo with a big-band mind". Det uttrycket beskriver bra hur ny albumet låter. Elva rockiga låtar i samarbete med vännen Danger Mouse, förvandlas till ett mäktigt sound för de stora arenorna. "El Camino" låter som en blandning av britrockens 70 och 80 -tal. Efter Beatles men före punkens intåg, en blandning mellan soundet av T-Rex och Gary Glitter mixat med hårdare rock som Led Zeppelin och Black Sabbath.<br/><br/>"Rått, hett och jäkligt stilrent. El Camino är nästan för perfekt, det är totalt omöjligt att finna brister hur mycket man än bemödar sig." - Gaffa<br/><br/>"Med första singeln "Lonely Boy" i spetsen drar "El Camino" in med ett gitarrdriv som en mindre orkan." - Kajsa Lindström, Sydsvenskan<br/><br/>"Det är kul med alla dessa band som gör garageaktig bluesrock men som i stället för att fastna i sunkig nostalgi gör musik som är fullt kompatibel med övrig nutida musik. Det här är i allt väsentligt modernt och nyfiket." - Johan Lindquist, Göteborgsposten<br/><br/>"Duons sjunde album - som de gjort tillsammans med Danger Mouse - innehåller några av deras bästa låtar." - Linnea Olsson, Svenska Dagbladet
