White and Mosshart to release album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 13 March 2009
Jack White and The Kills’ Alison Mosshart, Dean Fertita of Queens Of The Stone Age and The Greenhornes’ Jack Lawrence have announced that they will release their first album together, under the name The Dead Weather, this summer.
The group played their first gig at a private showcase in Nashville on Wednesday, after which White told reporters: “The idea was to do a 7″ single and be done with it, but we started writing songs and something happened”.
The album, ‘Horehound’, will be released in June, and will be preceded by a single, ‘Hang You From Heaven’. You can hear the single and the band’s cover of Gary Numan’s ‘Are Friends Electric?’ on their website at www.thedeadweather.com
