Jack White to Officially Release Surprise No Name Album This Week

Jack White has announced the official release of his surprise-dropped new album, “No Name,” which was briefly for sale in limited quantities in his Third Man Record stores earlier this month, in a plain white sleeve with no information beyond the title.  

The official version will drop Friday (Aug. 2), with a blue vinyl edition will be available in Third Man Records retail stores on Thursday, and in select independent record stores across the world the following day. It will also be available on black vinyl via the Third Man and Jack White websites.

Holding true to White’s DIY roots, the album was recorded, produced, and mixed by him at his Third Man Studio throughout 2023 and 2024, pressed to vinyl at Third Man Pressing, and released by Third Man Records.
