The Raconteurs by Steven Sebring
The Raconteurs will release a new documentary film and live EP tomorrow via Third Man.
Live At Electric Lady captures Jack White, Brendan Benson, Patrick Keeler and Jack Lawrence at the famous studio in New York – the city where we spent a weekend with the band last summer as they returned with the new album Help Us Stranger, finding them, ‘as vital and vibrant sounding as ever’:
“The next day was another uncharacteristically beautiful New York one, excitement still high with The Raconteurs set to play a real club show in Brooklyn. But they threw everyone a curveball by announcing they were going to play a surprise set at venerable Greenwich Village mainstay Generation Records, first come first served.”
“Judging by videos posted on YouTube, it was another cool, intimate performance that saw the band playing to a small yet enthusiastic crowd hunkered down between record racks in the basement of the shop.”
