Jack White adds UK dates

Jack White has added three UK shows to his world tour in support of second solo album Lazaretto.

He’d previously been confirmed to appear the Glastonbury on June 28 and at the London’s Eventim Apollo on July 3.

Now he’s confirmed he’ll be back in November with stops at Leeds, Glasgow and London.

He appeared on The Tonight Show on US TV earlier this week to demonstrate the “ultra-vinyl” edition of Lazaretto. Among its unique features are a song embedded in the paper label, side one playing from the inside of the disc to the outside, and a double-grooved track which means listeners hear a different start to the song according to where the needle drops onto the album.

White told host Jimmy Fallon: “It’s the first vinyl record to have an etched hologram. It also makes pizza and drives you to work in the morning.”

Jack White talks Lazaretto

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
