Jack White unveiled big news about his long-awaited debut solo LP this morning: Blunderbuss arrives on April 24th via Third Man Records/Columbia, preceded by lead single “Love Interruption,” available for pre-order now and to stream below.
As the announcement notes, guest performers include the likes of Seasick Steve, Chris Thile, and Ruby Amanfu, among others. Meanwhile, Jack described his decision to finally go solo:
I’ve put off making records under my own name for a long time but these songs feel like they could only be presented under my name. These songs were written from scratch, had nothing to do with anyone or anything else but my own expression, my own colors on my own canvas.
“Love Interruption,” along with non-album cut “Machine Gun Silhouette,” hits digital stores tomorrow and on 7” vinyl February 7th. Hear it below:
When I found out about this I called my mom from work so she could read me the COS article…then I learned there was a stream so the bus ride/drive home felt like it was taking extra long.
The song is nothing like I expected but I like it. Typically I have a completely irrational but usually justified “Jack White can do no wrong” attitude towards everything he’s ever released, so I figure this album will be the same way…I’m looking very much forward to it.
The first thing I thought when I heard that it was coming out in April was “SUMMER TOUR”…not holding my breath though.
