New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Jack White's new solo album FEAR OF THE DAWN - which includes the acclaimed singles "Taking Me Back," "Hi-De-Ho (w/ Q-Tip)," and the rollicking title track, "
Fear Of The Dawn" - has made a landmark chart debut following its April 8 release, entering at #1 on Billboard's "Top Album Sales," "Top Current Album Sales," "Top Alternative Albums," "Top Rock Albums," "Record Label Independent Current Albums," "Digital Albums," "Current
Digital Albums," "Internet Albums," and "Vinyl Albums," as well as at #4 on the overall Billboard 200.
This marks the fourth consecutive debut atop the "Top Alternative Albums" and "Top Rock Albums" charts for a new
Jack White solo release. Internationally, FEAR OF THE DAWN debuted at #3 in the UK, #6 in Germany, and in Japan at #4 on the Rock Chart and #7 on the International Chart. The album also debuted at #2 in the UK Official Vinyl Album Charts.
White has also premiered the official music video for "What's The Trick?" today on Facebook. The video is directed by Jason Lester (Wallows, Rostam, Animal Collective) and features some notable Nashville faces and places, including
Regina McCrary (of the McCrary Sisters), singer-songwriter Adia Victoria, singer-songwriter-actress Lola Kirke, and the Historic RCA Studio B. "What's The Trick?" is but one of the many highlights found on White's first new album of 2022, FEAR OF THE DAWN, available everywhere now via Third Man Records. White's second new album of the year, ENTERING HEAVEN ALIVE, will follow on July 22.
White - who will celebrate FEAR OF THE DAWN with a performance tomorrow night on the Wednesday, April 20 episode of CBS' Late Show with Stephen Colbert (check local listings) - kicked off his epic Supply Chain
Issues Tour earlier this month with two sold-out homecoming shows at Detroit's Masonic Temple Theatre celebrating the release of FEAR OF THE DAWN, the first of which saw him propose to and then marry fellow musician
Olivia Jean in an on-stage ceremony witnessed by family members and officiated by Third Man co-founder Ben Swank.
Produced by Live Nation, the tour - which features White's first headline shows in four years - continues with shows in North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom through late August (full list of dates below).
