The Dead Weather has confirmed dates for their first ever tour, kicking
off in Louisville, Kentucky on June 11th. The dirge rock four-piece,
consisting of celebrated musicians Dean Fertita (Queens Of The Stone
Age), “Little” Jack Lawrence (The Raconteurs, The Greenhornes), Alison
Mosshart (The Kills) & Jack White (The White Stripes, The Raconteurs),
have already won critical acclaim for their recent spirited live
performances in Nashville and New York City.
The band’s debut album Horehound, the first record to be recorded and
released via Jack White’s new Third Man studios and record label in
Nashville, TN, will be made available through Third Man/Warner Bros
Records on July 14th 2009. To date, The Dead Weather have released two
tracks via iTunes and on limited edition 7″ vinyl: “Hang You From The
Heavens” and “Are Friends Electric?”
Limited pre-sale tickets will be available starting Wednesday, May 13th
at 12 noon EST by visiting thedeadweather.com. Those fans purchasing
pre-sale tickets will also have the opportunity to pre-order the
full-length album, Horehound, at a discounted price.
Some early praise for The Dead Weather:
“The 11 songs on the album…are spare and sexy, with the vocals often
distorted or submerged beneath grinding, snaky rhythms.” – The New York
Times
“…(a) bluesy blend of psych-rock guitar, alternately stark and
explosive rhythms and Mosshart’s sultry-to-siren vocal…” – Rolling
Stone
Don’t miss The Dead Weather with special guests at the Commodore
Ballroom on August 21st & 22nd 2009.
