Jack White

On June 13 and 14, 2026, Jack White returns to the Olympia in Paris for two concerts centered on his no‑frills rock. Born in Detroit, the youngest of ten siblings, he has developed a hands‑on, artisanal approach that runs through everything he does, from his records to Third Man Records. With The White Stripes, formed in 1997, he brought a stripped‑down garage‑blues back to the forefront. Elephant (2003) established him internationally and “Seven Nation Army” became a chant heard everywhere. The duo was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2025.

White then moved between collaborative projects and solo outings. The Raconteurs released Broken Boy Soldiers and its hit “Steady, As She Goes”; The Dead Weather explored a darker vein with members of The Kills, Queens of the Stone Age and The Greenhornes. As a solo artist—from Blunderbuss to Lazaretto, Boarding House Reach, Fear of the Dawn, Entering Heaven Alive and No Name—he broadened his palette without abandoning the riff. A winner of 12 Grammy Awards, on stage he lines up abrasive guitars, a blues pulse and biting melodies, drawing from his entire repertoire, from the White Stripes to the Raconteurs and Dead Weather through to his recent albums. At the Olympia, the raw energy and his sense for the short format do the rest.
