Jack White landed his first professional gig as the drummer for the Detroit band Goober & the Peas and was still in that position when the band broke up in 1996 at the age of 19 years. It was in this band that he learned about touring and performing onstage. After the band’s split, he settled into working as an upholsterer by day while moonlighting in local bands, as well as performing solo shows. Though a bartender by trade, Meg began to learn to play the drums in 1997 and, according to Jack, “When she started to play drums with me, just on a lark, it felt liberating and refreshing.” The couple became a band, calling themselves the White Stripes, and two months later performed their first show at the Gold Dollar in Detroit.

White has not revealed the identities of his siblings but he was born in Detroit, Michigan, on July 9, 1975, the youngest of ten children of Teresa and Gorman M. Gillis. His mother’s family was Polish, while his father was Scottish-Canadian. He was raised a Catholic, and his father and mother both worked for the Archdiocese of Detroit as the building maintenance superintendent and secretary in the Cardinal’s office, respectively.

Jack White was born John Anthony White and was the seventh son and last child among seven boys and two girls. One of his brothers is deceased, and White is sometimes plagued by the thought that he might be the last in his family to die, after holding vigils for the others. His siblings include a postal inspector, a property manager, a child psychiatrist, a pastry chef, and a musical archivist and musician.
