Jack White's The Raconteurs Announce Comeback Gig And Discuss New Album

The Raconteurs have announced details of a comeback gig, set to take place in September.

The Jack White-fronted band will headline the MI Festival in Brooklyn, Michigan alongside Sheryl Crow on September 17.

The show will be the band's first gig of 2011.

Speaking about the possibility of a new album, Brendan Benson told Billboard: "I don't know when the next time we'll all be available to make a record, or even talk about it, will be.''

He added: "When we were founded it was whimsical and impulsive and spontaneous and all those words. I think it'll always be that way."

The Raconteurs last album 'Consolers of the Lonely' was released in 2008.
