Jack White
Jan 11, 2018
“Connected By Love” is the name of the most recent Jack White track. This serves as the first single from his eagerly anticipated third solo album, “Boarding House Reach” (Third Man/Columbia) due March 23rd. A thought-provoking companion visual accompanies "Connected by Love," filmed in Los Angeles and Nashville by director Pasqual Gutierrez.
"Connected by Love" was produced by White and recorded at Sear Sound in New York City, Capitol Studios in Los Angeles, and Third Man Studio in Nashville - marking the first time that White has recorded an album in NYC and L.A.. The track features White on vocals, synthesizer, and acoustic guitar, backed by a remarkable new lineup of musicians that includes drummer Louis Cato (Beyoncé, Q-Tip, John Legend), bassist Charlotte Kemp Muhl (The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger), synthesizer player DJ Harrison, keyboardist Neal Evans (Soulive, Talib Kweli, John Scofield), percussionist Bobby Allende (David Byrne), and backing vocalists Ann & Regina McCrary of Nashville's beloved gospel trio, The McCrary Sisters.
After being a part of The White Stripes from 1997 to 2011, Jack White released his debut solo album, “Blunderbuss” in 2012. His second studio album, “Lazaretto,” was released in 2014. Both received wide commercial and critical acclaim. He has won twelve Grammy Awards, and both of his solo albums have reached number one on Billboard.
White will celebrate “Boarding House Reach” with a number of just announced headline festival performances, including Shaky Knees in Atlanta (May 4th-6th), Boston Calling 2018 (May 25th-27th), and Governor's Ball in New York (June 1st-3rd). Additional dates will be unveiled soon.
