What an amazing week - and one to never forget here at Modern Rocks Gallery during our 10th Anniversary year. 

The Black Keys came to SXSW and knocked it out of the park. Akron, Ohio was in Austin, Texas and it was pure magic from start to finish with amazing shows, appearances, record hangs, a movie premiere, a keynote speech, and to top it all, Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney came to hang at Modern Rocks Gallery on the opening night of Larry Niehues’ gallery show.

The Black Keys: Photographs by Larry Niehues, runs until the first week of April, with prints available to order from our website if you can’t make it to the gallery. 

Huge thanks to everyone in The Black Keys the Easy Eye Soundfamily for bringing the magic.
