Undoubtedly one of the most venerated guitarists of the 21st century, Jack White has played a pivotal role in restoring the popularity of punk-blues as the lead guitarist of the rock duo ‘The White Stripes’. Even though his fiery strumming of the guitar with accompanying vocals in a nasal voice were the prime reasons for the success of ‘The White Stripes’, the group experimented as its reputation became more established and built upon its initially minimalist sound design by incorporating elements of pop, early rock & roll, backwoods country, and metal. As a solo artist, White also followed a similar evolution and by the time the group was 10 years old, he had successfully collaborated with several other artists and groups, appeared in a number of films, and also produced records for several artists. ‘Third Man Records’, his own label and studio releases not only his own work but also by local school children. His second studio album, ‘Lazaretto’ set the record for most vinyl LP sales in the first week. On the board of the ‘Library of Congress' National Recording Preservation Foundation’, White is an advocate for the preservation of analog technology and recording techniques.
