Jack White
Jack White is an American rock musician known for raw, blues-influenced guitar work, first with the White Stripes duo and later with the Raconteurs and solo projects.
His name evokes stripped-down garage rock aesthetics and analog recording purism.
White has become shorthand for a certain kind of guitar-driven authenticity: He's going for that Jack White sound.
