Jack White on The White Stripes' future

Jack White of The White Strips and recently of The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather, recently spoke to Music Radar about the future of the band and when their touring hiatus might end.

The duo have already begun working on material again, with White saying:

We had recorded a couple of songs at the new studio. I talked to her about coming by when I was done in the summer rehearsing with The Dead Weather - I won't be done in the summer touring with them, but after the summer jaunt. [A new album] won't be too far off. Maybe next year.

The band cancelled their tour dates in 2007 due to acute anxiety suffered by drummer Meg White. The band released Icky Thump in 2007.
