Jack White announces world tour in support of his new album

Jack White is hitting the road in a big way to promote his upcoming new solo album, “Boarding House Reach.”

The veteran singer, songwriter, guitarist and co-founder of the White Stripes will perform in nearly three dozen cities in North America and Europe in support of the 13-song album, which will be released March 23.

The tour opens April 19 in White’s hometown of Detroit and concludes Aug. 23 in Las Vegas. The third to last date will be Aug. 21 at San Diego State University’s Viejas Arena. All of the cities and dates appear below, along with ticket information.

“Boarding House Reach” is White’s first new album since “Lazaretto” in 2014. The White Stripes officially disbanded in early 2011.

Recorded in Los Angeles, Nashville and New York, “Boarding House Reach” teams White with two of the three members of the Nashville gospel-music vocal trio the McCrary Sisters. It also features a group of instrumentalists whose previous credits range from Beyoncé and Talib Kweli to jazz guitar great John Scofield and former Talking Heads’ leader David Byrne.

It is unclear how many of the musicians featured on “Boarding House Reach,” if any, will also be in White’s touring band. The album is being jointly released by Columbia Records and White’s label, Third Man.

Tickets for his tour go on sale to the general public on Jan. 26 at 10 a.m. local time through ticketmaster.com and livenation.com, and by phone: (800) 745-3000. Tickets for White’s Aug. 21 San Diego concert are priced between $39.50 and $89.50, plus service charges.

A pre-sale for Third Man Records Vault members will begin Jan. 22 at 10 a.m. local time.

Fans can also buy advance tickets through the Ticketmaster Verified Fan pre-sale. Registration for Ticketmaster Verified Fan is now open and will continue through 11:59 p.m. EST on Jan. 19.
