From archivist Ben Blackwell on the new shows:

The ten newest shows to drop from the universally heralded “No Name” tour are a clutch of multi-show stands across New York, Boston, Paris and Utrecht. Spirited, heat of the moment takes on “Louie Louie”, the Modern Lovers “Roadrunner” to “Boogie Chillen'” and Iggy Pop’s “The Passenger” delight in addition to no shortage of extended, blistering improvisations and so much more if you just dig in.

Of particular excitement is the February 26th show in Utrecht, home to influential architect and furniture designer Gerrit Rietveld. As one of the pre-eminent members of the De Stijl art movement in the early 20th century, the White Stripes album De Stijl was in part dedicated to him. So not only did Jack White perform part of the show while seated in a replica of Rietveld’s revolutionary Red and Blue Chair, but he also dusted of six songs originally released on De Stijl, some like “Jumble, Jumble” which haven’t been played live in over twenty years!

Third Man Thursday: Jack White Winter 2025

This month’s release from Third Man Records highlights four shows to kick off 2025 – a lauded surprise performance in Anaheim plus three electric nights in Toronto including White’s debut at the legendary Massey Hall.

From archivist Ben Blackwell on the new shows:

The first four Jack White shows of 2025 are unprecedentedly stellar. While the month-long holiday break would dull the shine of lesser bands, Jack and company came back with discernible fire to start the year, stronger than ever. 

Announced only days in advance, the Anaheim performance from January 25th might be the best pure show in terms of sonics and recording quality that White has ever dropped on Nugs. Loud and upfront and in your face. From the Delta-styled slide guitar improvisation “Bugging Out” coupled with a spirited take on Willie Dixon’s “Spoonful” and an improv detailing a trip that day to Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles (which we’ve titled “Roscoe’s Chicken And Waffles”) and this gig is a rip-snorting barnburner all around.

The following three shows from Toronto are no slouch though. Jack kicked off his first ever appearance at the iconic Massey Hall with a rousing romp through “Rockin’ In The Free World” as a sly nod to Neil Young, the artist most often associated with the legendary venue. Water, gasoline, phonographs, archbishops, buffaloes, licorice, balls, biscuits, orchids and even more gems to find if you dig deep, the 2025 run is already shaping up to rival the intensity and insanity of 2024.
