Jack White’s Solo Debut to be Live-Streamed via YouTube
Following the release of his first solo album, Jack White joins forces with director Gary Oldman in a live-streamed NY concert.
Jack White of the White Stripes, The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather will celebrate the release of his first solo album with a live streamed New York concert. The show, to be held April 27 at NY's Webster Hall, will be directed by Gary Oldman and will come three days after White's album 'Blunderbuss' (Third Man Records/Colombia) hits retailers. The event, the first instalment in the third season of American Express's 'Unstaged' series, will be available to view via YouTube, and mobile devices via VEVO and YouTube apps for iPhone, iPad, iTouch, and Android.
'Unstaged' is an artistic endeavour which pairs major musical acts with renowned filmmakers. Past collaborations have included an Anton Corbijn-directed Coldplay video, which drew over 19 million YouTube streams. Other participating musical artists have included John Legend, Mary J. Blige and the Roots.
The show will air on April 27 at 9 pm ET (11am on the 28th for Sydneysiders). 'Blunderbuss' is also currently available for download on iTunes.
