LISTEN: Jack White's new singles 'Sixteen Saltines' and 'Love is Blindness' (U2 cover)


Jack White just released "Sixteen Saltines," the alt-rocking second single from his forthcoming debut album "Blunderbuss," out April 24 on Third Man Records/Columbia.

White unveiled the song for the first time during his March 3 appearance on "Saturday Night Live." Pre-orders for a 7" vinyl single featuring the non-album B-side, White's creepy-cool cover of U2's "Love Is Blindness" (also posted below), are currently being taken at:

The vinyl single hits stores March 20.


The White Stripes/The Raconteurs/The Dead Weather mastermind is currently playing select headline and festival dates leading up to the release of "Blunderbuss," including a headlining set at the Third Man Records Texas Stand-Off, the label's first ever official South By Southwest showcase, on Friday, March 16 at The Stage on Sixth in Austin, TX.

LISTEN: Jack White's new single 'Love Interruption'


Here's "Love Interruption," the first single off Jack White's upcoming solo debut album, "Blunderbuss."



The digital version of the acoustic guitar-based, terrifically spooky, 1960s-feeling track with female backing vocals will be available to purchase at midnight.

"Blunderbuss" will be released April 24 on Third Man Records/ Columbia.

A vinyl version of the "Love Interruption" single featuring exclusive non-LP B-side "Machine Gun Silhouette" will be released Feb. 7 on Third Man Records, but is available now for pre-order at www.jackwhiteIII.com and www.thirdmanrecords.com.

White produced and recorded "Blunderbuss" at his own Third Man Studio in Nashville.

In a publicity he said it 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."
