5 Jack White's projects

The Upholsterers

Jack White, and in the early years more John Anthony Gillis, took up music as a teenager. It all started with a hobby rock and blues 60s and playing musical instruments older brothers. But the impetus to play in a rock band served as a meeting with Brian Moldunom - Upholsters from Detroit. At age 15, White became his apprentice, and at the same time - a guitarist in the band spontaneously created. It was called - "Upholstery worker."

Their music is not found in strimingovyh services, but acceptable quality of recording is still preserved. Here, for example, a cover version of Jack Starr Pain songs (Gimme Sympathy), which already guessed characteristic White for musical techniques: podgruzhenny guitar, four on the floor and sometimes almost faltering high vote. Record came out in 2000.

music lessons took place against the background of the main activities: White and Moldun continued to work Upholsters in Third Man Upholstery. And in 2014, we showed up their small business customers who found the record's second single group under the skin of their armchairs and sofas. On assurance of the White label Third Man Records, these copies were produced only 100, and all of them were distributed in the furniture.

Jack White has become a rock star, and Brian Moldun chose a different path and stayed in Detroit. He is still engaged in furniture upholstery and plays in a band, but now with his sons Shane and Hunter.

The White Stripes

The duo Jack and his ex-wife Meg White, which lasted from 1997 to 2011. Popularity came to him with the third album, White Blood Cells, issued in 2001. Around that time, and the first place, most likely, the appearance of The White Stripes on the Russian terrestrial TV - this was cutting of the songs Fell In Love With a Girl and Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground, played live at the festival MTV Movie Awards 2002.

In 2003 he published the Elephant - the fourth album of the band with the most anthemic Seven Nation Army as the main singles. Even more fame, concerts, on the radio and TV.

In the same year the film Jim Jarmusch's "Coffee and Cigarettes", consisting of 11 short stories, starring famous actors and musicians, such as Cate Blanchett, Steve Buscemi, Iggy Pop, Tom Waits. The heroes of one of the parts - Jack and Meg White, playing themselves.

Nominally, the group existed until 2011, but in reality everything was quiet much earlier: the last album The White Stripes was released in 2007. Around this time, Jack White starts active in other projects: The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather.

The Raconteurs

The Raconteurs - Jack White project and solo artist Brendan Benson, founded in 2005. With the popularity of Wight and the first single Steady, As She Goes already in 2006, they gave a series of successful concerts, performed at several popular festivals and "warmed" by Bob Dylan in the part of his tour.

The Raconteurs have positioned themselves as a group of old friends rather than as just another Jack White project. But whatever it was, just look at a couple of lives provided background to see that the team still has a clear lead singer. For example, Blue Veins, performed by The Raconteurs at the Bonnaroo festival in 2008. One of those rare cases where a very long guitar solo is appropriate and fits great in not particularly remarkable, in general, is a song.

In contrast, The Upholsterers and The White Stripes, The Raconteurs are not broken up, although the news of it was already 10 years old. In 2010, Brendan Benson said that the band's future uncertain, since all its members are busy with other, higher priority projects.

The Dead Weather

Group Jack White, Alison Mosshart of The Kills, Dean Fertity of Queens of the Stone Age and Jack Lawrence of The Raconteurs and The Greenhornes. Such collaboration is called supergroups, but music history shows that such alliances are usually produced quite a checkpoint music. The Dead Weather - one of the exceptions.

The group is active, the last album Dodge and Burn was released in 2015.

Jack White's solo work

And here - exactly what Jack White appears in the first place. On account of the artist three solo albums, the very fresh of which - Boarding House Reach - we told in March. The most popular track release called Over and Over and Over, White opens them all last concerts.

The White works as an independent actor, too, has some interesting moments. For example, in 2008, he teamed up with Alicia Keys has released the title track to the 22nd James Bond film "Quantum of Solace".

In the same year the film came out, "It Might Get Loud" of three musicians and three-guitar school: Jack White, Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin and The Edge of U2. Throughout the film the characters talk about their approach to writing and recording music, playing and discussing each other's songs.

In his biography of White, much more interesting: the artist work as a producer, a collaboration with one of the first rock 'n' roll singer Wanda Jackson, record and release singles on vinyl for four hours or, for example, record a short concert as part of The White Stripes, consisting of one notes.
