Jack White Remembers Loretta Lynn: ‘The Greatest Female Singer-Songwriter of the 20th Century’

Following the announcement of her death on Tuesday, a number of tributes poured in honoring Loretta Lynn. The singer-songwriter re-emerged as a force in the early 2000s on the strength of Van Lear Rose, her album that was produced by Jack White. That album, which was her 42nd studio album, was widely praised and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, and No. 24 on the Billboard 200. The album won Grammys for Best Country Album and “Portland Oregon” won for Best Country Collaboration with Vocals in 2005. Hours after her death, White paid tribute to his friend in a video posted on his Instagram account. “I said when I was first asked about her what I thought and I said years ago that I thought she was the greatest female singer-songwriter of the 20th century. I still...

30 Signature Guitars for Modern Artists

For decades, having a signature guitar was reserved for classic rock legends — the Claptons, the Hendrixes, the Pages, the SRVs and EVHs. But that’s no longer the case. From pop-punk to heavy metal, alt-country to neo-soul, modern artists of all genres and backgrounds are getting signature guitars from companies big and small. Among the titans of the industry, that intentional shift came with a new generation being put into decision-making positions. “When I started, it was largely classic rock and very much a pantheonic Hall of Fame,” Fender’s Executive VP for Products Justin Norvell says of the early 2000s. “It was an end-of-an-iconic-career kind of thing. But it was my feeling that it should be something that people can use to reflect back upon themselves. A Telecaster can mean James Bu...

Music Midtown Festival Canceled Due to Georgia Gun Ruling

Atlanta’s annual Music Midtown festival has been canceled amid a 2019 Georgia Supreme Court ruling making it easier for people to carry firearms onto publicly owned property such as the city’s Piedmont Park, where the event was planned to take place on Sept. 17-18 with My Chemical Romance, Jack White and Future. The Live Nation-produced festival did not specify the reason for the cancellation in its social media announcement, but local media reports confirmed the behind-the-scenes battle to clarify whether Music Midtown organizers had any leeway to bar firearms from the site in the face of the 2019 ruling. A source tells SPIN that organizers had also been searching for an alternate venue but were unable to secure one in time to move forward this year. “Hey Midtown fans — due to circumstanc...

Jack White had quite the busy day yesterday. He released his first of two new albums, Fear of Dawn, played the National Anthem at the Detroit Tigers’ Opening Day, and kicked off his Supply Chain Issues tour, where he nonchalantly proposed to and married his girlfriend Olivia Jean onstage at Detroit’s Masonic Temple Theatre.
