The Dead Weather
Band Nashville United States Formed 2009
The Dead Weather formed in 2009 in Nashville, United States. The Dead Weather has 48 chart appearances on 42 radio countdowns from 24 stations on RockLists, spanning 2009–2025. The most successful song on radio countdowns is “Die By The Drop”, which appears on 19 lists with a best position of #10. The station that charted The Dead Weather most often is CD101 (Columbus, OH), with 9 appearances. The artist’s biggest year on year-end countdowns was 2010.
The Dead Weather came together in Nashville in 2009 as a supergroup with serious pedigree: Alison Mosshart from the Kills and Discount, Jack White from the White Stripes and the Raconteurs, Dean Fertita, who played in Queens of the Stone Age, and Jack Lawrence, a veteran of both the Greenhornes and the Raconteurs. The unveiling came on March 11, 2009, when Third Man Records threw open its new Nashville home and the band played its first-ever show there, then put out "Hang You From The Heavens" right after.
Horehound, that same year, is a swampy, menacing blues-rock record full of fuzz and threat, with "Treat Me Like Your Mother" and "I Cut Like A Buffalo" snarling alongside the debut single. Sea of Cowards arrived in 2010 with "Die By The Drop", a sludgy, crashing rocker, and "Blue Blood Blues". After a long pause, Dodge and Burn landed in September 2015 carrying "I Feel Love (Every Million Miles)". All of it came out on Third Man, and all of it sounds like a thunderstorm in a basement.
