Abstract

Jack White is one of today’s most influential American rock musicians, having inspired the indie-rock duo craze and the blues-rock revival. This study explores his influence, concentrating on three facets of his career: White’s relationship with past musical genres, in particular his adoption of delta blues compositional and performance style; his calculated visual imagery and mythological persona; and his promotion of LPs in light of the resurgence of vinyl records.These elements reveal that White is leading the neo-blues movement and the broader postmodern appropriation of American folk music.
