The White Stripes announce a very special North American tour this summer in
celebration of their highly anticipated album Icky Thump (Third Man/Warner Bros.Records), due out June 19th.
“This tour marks the first time The White Stripes have taken on all 10 Canadian provinces, as well as the Yukon, Nunavut and Northwest Territories. Having never done a full tour of Canada, Meg and I thought it was high time to go whole hog. We want to take this tour to the far reaches of the Canadian landscape. From the ocean to the permafrost. The best way for us to do that is ensure that we perform in every province and territory in the
country, from the Yukon to Prince Edward Island. Another special moment of this tour is the show which will occur in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia on July 14th, The White Stripes’ Tenth Anniversary.” -Jack White

Following Canada, the band will visit the United States to play the first leg of the 16 states they have yet to visit during their career, as well as a handful of performances in other markets including New York City and Boston.
