According to Ross Riley at Strangeglue, in addition to The Dead Weather album, which you've read about here, Jack White is working on a White Stripes movie. Riley writes that in addition to Horehound there is an upcoming White Stripes Film, "which he is busy mixing now. There's no further details but Jack did let slip that he is mixing more than 40 tracks for the film."
Altsounds.com also reports the same information as well as a 2009 release date for the film, a rehash that White is producing "four or five records right now," including artists Rachelle Garniez and someone or some band known only as Mildred.
They also mention a June to August summer tour for Dead Weather as well as a June release date, and a project about which they quote White as stating "We've got this whole series coming out where people are just taking a photo at the Third Man building with a blue background, and you just hear the music and look at their photographs. I've been producing and playing drums on all these records as well." Not quite sure exactly what that means, but it sounds vaguely interesting non-the-less.
In addition to the reported Record Store Day release of the 7" for Dead Weather's "Hang You From The Heavens", CraveOnline.com repors Jack White lent support to the festivites by stating "“I think it’s high time the mentors, big brothers, big sisters, parents, Guardians, and neighborhood ne’er do wells, start taking younger people that look up to them to a real record store and show them what an important part of life music really is. I trust no one who hasn’t time for music. What a shame to leave a child, or worse, a generation orphaned from one of life’s great beauties. And to the record stores, artists, labels, DJs, and journalists; we’re all in this together. Show respect for the tangible music that you’ve dedicated your careers and lives to, and help It from becoming nothing more than disposable digital data.”
Stay tuned...
