The Dead Weather is an American rock supergroup formed in Nashville, Tennessee in 2009. The band is comprised of a dynamic lineup of seasoned musicians from various other successful bands: Alison Mosshart, lead vocalist of The Kills, brings her fiery presence to the group; Jack White, primarily known as the frontman for The White Stripes, not only contributes his songwriting prowess but also steps in as the drummer and occasional vocalist; Jack Lawrence, member of The Raconteurs and The Greenhornes, plays bass guitar; and Dean Fertita, from Queens of the Stone Age and also involved with The Raconteurs, rounds out the ensemble on keyboards and guitar. The Dead Weather's music is a gritty amalgamation of garage rock, blues, and alternative rock, characterized by its dark, atmospheric tones and raw energy.

The band's discography includes a trilogy of critically acclaimed studio albums: 'Horehound' (2009), 'Sea of Cowards' (2010), and 'Dodge and Burn' (2015), which showcase their unique sound that meshes bluesy psych-rock with fervent punk influences. They quickly garnered attention with their debut single "Hang You From The Heavens" and continued their ascent with tracks like "Treat Me Like Your Mother" and "I Cut Like A Buffalo." Known for their intense and commanding live performances, The Dead Weather has also released the live album 'Live at Third Man Records West', capturing the raw, magnetic energy of their stage presence. With their supergroup status and a potent, innovative sound that continues to evolve, The Dead Weather has cemented its place in the modern rock landscape.
