The White Stripes is an American rock band headquartered in Detroit that was established in 1997. The group’s members were Meg White and composer Jack White (vocals, guitar, piano, mandolin, and composition) (drums and vocals). After releasing numerous singles and three albums in the Detroit music scene, The White Stripes became well-known in 2002 as a representative of the garage rock revival movement.

Their well-known and acclaimed albums White Blood Cells and Elephant were covered by a wide spectrum of media outlets in the United States and the United Kingdom. The popular song “Seven Nation Army,” which included an opening riff created with a guitar and an octave pedal, is one of their best-known tunes.

The band split up in 2011 after a lengthy hiatus from live performances and recording, having released two more albums, Get Behind Me Devil in 2005 and Icky Thump in 2007.

Low-fidelity compositional and recording techniques were used by The White Stripes. They blended elements of blues and garage rock into their music, and the lyrics, musical arrangement, and live performance were all rather simple. Other significant elements of the duo’s style included their fascination with the number three and their consistent use of the simple colour scheme of red, white, and black on all album and single covers.
