Jack White - Coming soon in 7" and 480" varieties.

Jack White is reportedly working. If you weren't sitting down, I apologize. It's pretty bone-rattling news. Mr. Ubiquitous, not content with his rotating rock trifecta of the White Stripes, Raconteurs, and Dead Weather is now releasing solo material. "Fly Farm Blues" will be released Aug 11 on White's own Third Man Records in digital format only. No extra tracks. No fancy vinyl collectors packaging. Just Jack. Just a song. Because he can.

White recorded the song during the filming of It Might Get Loud, a little tale of three guitar Gods and their individual takes on what the guitar means to them. And then they jam the shit out of each other's music. Jack White. The Edge. Jimmy Page. Cross-generational guitar Gods ready for your silver screen consumption. The film opens in LA and NY Aug 14 and then trickles out to the rest of America over the next two months. Full release schedule here. Trailer is below.
