The White Stripes

The White Stripes were an American rock duo formed in Detroit in 1997 by Jack White (vocals, guitar) and Meg White (drums). Their raw, minimalist sound blended garage rock, punk and blues, helping spark a revival of stripped‑down rock in the early 2000s. They scored major hits with songs like “Seven Nation Army,” “Fell in Love with a Girl,” “Blue Orchid,” and “Icky Thump.” These songs’ strong riffs and simple chord structures translate well to the ukulele, making them fun to play and ideal for adding a rock edge to your ukulele repertoire.
