Jack White and Conan O’Brien Team Up for Newport Folk Festival Finale

The Newport Folk Festival recently came to a close with a memorable performance by Jack White and Conan O’Brien. The duo took the stage on Sunday evening, joining forces for a unique duet of the White Stripes’ hit song "We’re Going to Be Friends." The performance was a special moment for both artists, as it marked the final song ever performed on O’Brien’s NBC late-night show.

A Duet of Friendship

Before launching into the song, White introduced the performance, saying, "We’re going to do a song about friendship." The song, which was first released on the White Stripes’ 2001 album White Blood Cells, has a special significance for O’Brien, as it was also the last song ever performed on his late-night show and is featured on his podcast, Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend.

Eddie Cochran’s "Twenty Flight Rock"

After performing "We’re Going to Be Friends," the pair took the stage again to perform Eddie Cochran’s classic rock ‘n’ roll song "Twenty Flight Rock." This performance was a nod to the song’s enduring popularity and its influence on both White and O’Brien’s musical styles.

Jack White’s New Album

In other news, Jack White recently announced a new album, but in an unconventional way. Earlier this month, an unlabeled LP began appearing in the bags of Third Man Records shoppers, given to them at no cost. The album, which contains 13 tracks of seemingly brand new material from White, does not have a title and features only the words "No Name" branded on the vinyl.

A Mystery Unfolds

Despite the mystery surrounding the album, White has offered no further information about its release or production. When asked about the album, a Third Man Records executive told UCR, "Not really sure what you’re talking about, but would be a great day to go and buy a record in the [Detroit] Cass corridor."

A Sneak Peek

On July 27, White played a benefit show for the American Legion Post 82 in Nashville, at which he played six songs from the new album. He offered no further information about the album, apart from telling the crowd, "I got something special for you at that merch table on your way out" (via Stereogum). This turned out to be copies of the new LP, featuring a blue album cover.
