The Greenhornes (or . . . More Jack White?)
The Greenhornes - The end of the night.
"The band's collaboration with Holly Golightly, "There Is an End", was the theme song of Jim Jarmusch's 2005 film, Broken Flowers.
Throughout their career, the Greenhornes have toured almost constantly, only taking breaks when the musicians have worked on other projects.
Lawrence and Keeler, along with Detroit musician and producer Dave Feeny, were in the Do-Whaters, the band formed and led by Jack White of The White Stripes for Loretta Lynn's 2004 album Van Lear Rose. Lawrence and Keeler spent all of 2006 at work in The Raconteurs with Benson and White. Lawrence is also the banjo and autoharp player for the Detroit band Blanche, which also includes Feeny, and plays bass in The Dead Weather, a band that includes Alison Mosshart (The Kills), Jack White and Dean Fertita (The Waxwings). Recently, Fox, McKinney, and Olive have been playing together in a new, still-untitled band in and around Cincinnati." (Via.)

Dangermouse x Daniele Luppi x Jack White x Norah Jones + Jack White & Seasick Steve Live at SXSW 2011 + The Kills "Blood Pressures" Album Streaming + White Stripes (R.I.P.) + Ah, Hell. . .
So, first of all - I have no idea how I missed the approach of this project 5-years-in-the-making, but Brian Burton (a.k.a. DJ Danger Mouse - one of my favorite musicians alive today) teamed up with Jack White (another personal favorite) Daniele Luppi and Norah Jones to create an album, Rome, inspired by Spaghetti Westerns. Oh and they went to Rome to get old Italian veteran musicians to record for them, rather than sampling. Jones just sings (as opposed to writing, which White covered, - with Burton/Luppi on mastering, etc.) and if you check out the video below Jack White describes his songwriting method for this project, which was a departure from his normal methodology.
Danger Mouse & Daniele Luppi - Rome Trailer (Via.) Can't wait til May 17th! Every project Burton has been a part of has been dope to me; his collabo with Cee-Lo Green was my least favorite and that was still Gnarls Barkley. . .
Secondly, moment of silence: R.I.P. White Stripes. Click here to read an article about them by author Chuck Klosterman. Although not unexpected, I still consider it a shame - even if everybody hates on Meg White's timekeeping. Under Great White Northern Lights was pretty incredibly dope in my book. (And back on just Jack, but still talking movies, so was It Might Get Loud - though I don't particularly care for U2/The Edge.)
Third, Jack White's Third Man Records has a pop-up mobile record store:

Click here to stream Blood Pressures (until the release date) by The Kills (half of which is comprised by the female co-vocalist of Jack White's Dead Weather band, where he plays the drums) (Via.) I really like the song "Wild Charms" because it was so expected from these guys - at least for me.
Oh, and you should definitely check out the Meyrin Fields EP by the Broken Bells (Brian Burton x James Mercer of The Shins) as well. Get it here.
Finally, I'm still waiting on that Jack White X Jay-Z collabo. . .
