Dan Auerbach will be the musical guest on tonight's Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Tune in to catch Dan perform a song off his solo debut album, Keep It Hid. The show airs on NBC starting at 12:35 AM ET. The Associated Press finds Keep It Hid "every bit as brainy, engaging and powerful as" Dan's work with The Black Keys and also sees him "stepping out, stretching a bit" on the new album. It's "full of tasty sounds," says the AP, and "shows an understanding of what really makes rock roll."

"Some musicians just get it," writes Chris Talbott of The Associated Press. "Dan Auerbach is one of those."
Talbott finds Keep It Hid "every bit as brainy, engaging and powerful as" Dan's work with The Black Keys ("two young guys so talented and in tune with each other, they're like a chemical reaction") and also sees him "stepping out, stretching a bit" on the new solo project. As with the band's most recent effort, Attack & Release, the sound of Keep It Hid "is much more diverse than the band's early, effervescent blues-rock work, and shows an understanding of what really makes rock roll."
The new record is "full of tasty sounds," says Talbott, material that "is often dark, perfect for Auerbach's preternatural voice," and also exhibits Dan's "range with the occasional ballad or plaintiff cry of the heartbroken soul man."
