The Dead Weather, Jack White's new band, are to play their first public show at New York's Bowery Ballroom on April 14.

The new outfit features White on drums (yes, drums) and backing vocals, Alison Mosshart of The Kills on lead vocals, Dean Fertita of Queens Of The Stone Age on guitar/keyboards and Jack Lawrence of The Raconteurs on bass.

The band premiered material from their forthcoming debut album at White's new Third Man Records complex in Nashville last month. MOJO was in attendance and witnessed a playback of the new record ("raw, bluesy, loud, uncompromising rock") and a short live set. You can read the full report HERE.

Tickets for The Bowery Ballroom show go on sale tomorrow (April 8) at 10am EST.
