Detroit, Michigan is the home of this American rock band. They were formed in 1997 by Jack White and Meg White. Many people thought they were brother and sister, but later it was revealed they were a divorced couple.

Their self-titled album was released in 1999 and then they released their second one in 2000 titled, “De Stijl”. White Blood Cells came out on their first major label. Q-Magazine said they were one of the 50 bands to see before you die. The single “Fell In Love with a Girl” brought them major attention.

In December of 2003, NME Magazine made it their Album of the Year. The single off the album “Seven Nation Army” was the most successful single for the band yet.
