It will be a rare, intimate performance by the legendary White Stripes frontman at the very venue where he wrote the iconic guitar riff for Seven Nation Army back in 2002.
That song would go on to become the lead single of seminal album Elephant and catapult The White Stripes to global rock superstardom. He’ll also perform in Ballarat at the historic Civic Hall.
Jack White’s two shows lead a new initiative that shines a spotlight on Victoria’s iconic live music venues, featuring intimate and exclusive performances. The series will include celebrated artists like Sarah Blasko in Castlemaine and Northcote, and Canadian singer-songwriter Andy Shauf, UK alt rockers Bôa and father-son First Nations rap duo across INKABEE x FLEWNT across multiple venues around the state.
