Some highlights of the tour dates were his festival stops at Bonnaroo, Glastonbury, and Forecastle Festival. 

Jack White is best known as the frontman of the band The White Stripes, though he has been in several bands including The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather and collaborated with various artists. On April 24, 2012, White released his debut solo album, Blunderbuss, which received wide critical acclaim. His second studio album, Lazaretto, was released on June 10, 2014.

He has won eight Grammy Awards and both of his solo albums have reached number one on the Billboard charts. Rolling Stone ranked him number 70 on its 2010 list of "The 100 Greatest Guitarists Of All Time". In 2011, David Fricke's 2011 list ranked him at #17. He is a vocal advocate for analog technology and recording techniques, and is a board member of the Library of Congress' National Recording Preservation Foundation.
