Jack WhiteJack White is taking his other, other band, The Dead Weather, on the road this summer.

The new group, which also includes the Kills’ Alison Mosshart and members of Queens of the Stone Age and the Raconteurs, will tour North America in support of their upcoming debut album, “Horehound.”

The trek kicks off June 11 in Louisville, KY and wraps up with a stop at the Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival in San Francisco, CA, which runs from Aug. 28 to 30. The band will also appear at the Austin City Limits Music Festival in Austin, TX in early October.

Five Canadian shows are on the schedule: July 19 in Ottawa (at the Cisco Ottawa Bluesfest), July 21 in Montreal, July 22 in Toronto, and Aug. 21 and 22 in Vancouver.

Tickets for Toronto and Vancouver go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. EDT and PDT through Ticketmaster and Live Nation. Fans can go to the band’s website to get tickets early through pre-sales beginning either today (May 13) or May 20.

“Horehound” will be released in Europe on July 13 and in North America on July 14.

And more good news for Jack White fans: The musician revealed to Music Radar recently that a new White Stripes album “won’t be too far off. Maybe next year.” White told the website that he and bandmate Meg White had already recorded a couple of songs for it prior to their appearance on the final “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” show in February.
