Sturgill Simpson’s Psychedelic Night with The Black Keys | Music News

Sturgill Simpson, under his Johnny Blue Skies moniker, dropped a mind-bending seven-minute psychedelic cover of “I Heard It Through the Grapevine” with The Black Keys in Nashville — no warning, just pure musical magic. This wasn’t their first collaboration; Simpson’s new album Mutiny After Midnight, recorded at Dan Auerbach’s Easy Eye Studios and steeped in shared reverence for John Prine, debuted exclusively on vinyl and soared to 3 on the Billboard 200. The night also featured Marcus King and marked the end of The Black Keys’ North American tour. Simpson’s “Mutiny for the Masses” tour kicks off Sept 4 in Austin and wraps Oct 30 back in Kentucky — get ready to ride.
