Jack White Announces August U.S. Gigs

Jack White is filling out his U.S. summer schedule with a few new headline shows to go with previously announced festival appearances at Lollapalooza and Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival.

The rocker, who began his first-ever solo headline tour in March, is touring in support of his debut solo album, Blunderbuss. The release debuted at No.1 on the Nielsen SoundScan chart in April. Although albums with The White Stripes, The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather hit the Top 10, Blunderbuss marked White’s first time at the top of the chart.
