The White Stripes

In April 2002, during their performance at the Glastonbury Festival, The White Stripes were riding the wave of success from their critically acclaimed album, "White Blood Cells," which was released the previous year. This album notably propelled them into the forefront of the garage rock revival and significantly increased their visibility in the music scene. At Glastonbury, they were known for their energetic and raw performances, showcasing their minimalist aesthetic and Jack White's distinctive guitar work. Their rendition of "Jolene," originally by Dolly Parton, highlights their penchant for reinterpreting classic songs, blending genres, and demonstrating their versatility as artists. This performance came just before their mainstream breakthrough, which would further cement their legacy in rock music with the follow-up album, "Elephant," in 2003.
