Jack White Unveils New Album Frozen Charlotte and 2026 World Tour

Jack White announced that his seventh solo studio album, Frozen Charlotte, will be released on July 10, 2026. The news came with the launch of the single “Dollar Bill,” now streaming across all major platforms. White first teased two tracks—“Derecho Demonico” and “G.O.D. and the Broken Ribs”—during his April 4 appearance on Saturday Night Live, where he shared the stage with his longtime bandmates.

Frozen Charlotte is a 13‑track collection that White’s website calls “raucous, raw and frenetic,” and the songs are rooted in blues traditions. The album follows the 2024 surprise drop of No Name, which was initially sold on unmarked vinyl in select Third Man Records stores before a wider digital release. Core collaborators return for the new record: drummer Patrick Keeler, keyboardist Bobby Emmett, and bassist Dominic John Davis.

Davis, who plays on “Dollar Bill,” explained that his bass tone was achieved with a ’65 Fender Jazz through a Hardware × Donner Triple Threat pedal and a Third Man Triplegraph for low frequencies. The gear setup was highlighted in a recent interview with Not Rebel, where Davis described using heavy palm‑muting and a pick to shape the track’s aggressive feel.

The album’s release dovetails with the launch of White’s extensive 2026 tour. The first North American leg kicks off on June 18 in Lyon, France, and includes stops in Italy, Croatia, Washington D.C., New York, Toronto, Boston, and Indianapolis. The tour will continue across Europe, Asia, and the United States, wrapping up in November in Charlotte, North Carolina. Key dates feature a July 10 show at The Anthem in Washington D.C.—the same day the album drops—and a July 25 performance at Pine Knob Music Theatre.

Frozen Charlotte will be issued on CD, vinyl, and as a digital download through Apple Music and Amazon Music. Fans can also purchase the album at Third Man Records stores and during tour dates. The release and tour schedule mark the next chapter in White’s solo career, following the critical acclaim of No Name and the high‑profile SNL performances.
