Black Keys, Foo Fighters Confirm New York's Global Fest

Black Keys, Foo Fighters Confirm New York's Global Fest
8/8/2012 2:20 PM ET

The Black Keys and the Foo Fighters have reportedly signed on to appear at the Global Festival in New York City. The event is set to hit the Great Lawn at New York's Central Park on September 9 and will also feature a performance by Neil Young.

The Black Keys' manager John Peets said the fest was a great opportunity for the small town boys to continue building on a global scale:

"All of us come from Ohio, so we grew up around working-class, hard-working people, but getting a global view makes you want to give back even more," he explained.
