Jack White Releasing Solo Debut in April

January 31, 2012

Link

Jack White will release Blunderbuss, his debut album as a solo artist, on Third Man Records/Columbia on April 24th. "Love Interruption," the first track to be released from the record, will be released today – first as a stream on White's official site, and later as a digital single on sale in the usual shops at 9 p.m. PT.

A vinyl single will be released on February 7th backed with a non-album track, "Machine Gun Silhouette."

White produced Blunderbuss at his Third Man Studio in Nashville, Tennessee. In a statement, White said that Blunderbuss is "an album I couldn't have released until now. 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."

Jack White's Collaborator on 'Love Interruption' Revealed as Ruby Amanfu

January 31, 2012

The mystery singer who duets with Jack White on his new single 'Love Interruption' has been revealed as Ruby Amanfu.

The former White Stripes man unveiled the track online yesterday (January 30) ahead of its release as a seven-inch single next Tuesday (February 7), with his debut solo album 'Blunderbuss' set to follow on April 23.

At first the identity of the female vocal that accompanies White on the record was unknown, but Amanfu has now taken to Twitter to inform fans that it belongs to her.

When asked to verify by a follower that it was her who had collaborated with White on the track, she replied:

''Confirmed. I am the lucky one.''


Amanfu, who also confirmed her involvement with White's new project on her official Facebook page, released her solo debut LP 'So Now The Whole World Knows' in 1998 and the follow-up, Smoke & Honey in 2003.

In 2008, meanwhile, she teamed up with singer Sam Brooker to release their first self-titled EP under their Sam And Ruby moniker, and later went on to put out their debut full-length album The Here And The Not the following year.

"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."

Sounds like the White Stripes to me shrug Not that that is a bad thing.

I'm definitely a fan, but I am still waiting for him to make an album that is great from start to finish. I feel like he works so fast that he runs on the rush of creation and does not let his music marinate quite long enough. Certain individual songs of his are great, however.

I feel a little like this, particularly the WS stuff. I did really like the second Raconteurs album though, because it felt like the music was more fleshed out.

I'm really looking forward to this! Can't think of any of his projects that I have not liked or loved so far.

If you will, so will I
