A musical all-rounder. A massive talent. One of the most legendary artists of the modern generation. Jack White plays Rock Werchter on Saturday 7 July . Often compared to guitar heroes like Jimi Hendrix and Jimmy Page. A man who can't be pigeon-holed. White is a constant surprise. When rock’n’roll lay dead on the slab at the beginning of this century The White Stripes woke the world with just a drum kit and an electric guitar. And ever since, he's been rolling high. On Boarding House Reach (due for release on 23 March 2018), his third solo project, the 12-time Grammy© Award winner tosses rock, jazz, country, gospel and electronica into the blender. It's the music of the future, and he plays it with an equally eclectic band of musicians. White is also passionately involved with Third Man Records: record company, concert hall, studio and vinyl press, and much, much more besides.
Queens of The Stone Age and Gorillaz play on Thursday 5 July, London Grammar play on Friday 6 July, Pearl Jam and Jack White on Saturday 7 July, and Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds on Sunday 8 July. More news tomorrow!
