Album Review: Jack And White - Winter EP


Today, songwriting duo Jack And White released their second EP titled Winter. And just like their first EP, this new 5-song album definitely does not disappoint. From the intriguing and random song titles to the catchy beats to the clever and inspirational lyrics, Jack And White can do no wrong.

"Night After Night" takes you through heartbreak with that known Jack And White beat. The witty lyrics and spooky chorus about ghosts and haunting hearts make for a great opening song. "XYZ" gives you a little bit of a country feel and ends with a little bit of rock 'n roll as Brooke and Jack explain life. Then the duo takes it down a bit in the ballad "Voices," with a yearning melody and longing lyrics describing what I believe is about winter.


But my favorite song on the EP would have to be "Bright Side of the Bad News." This upbeat song has the two asking, "where would I be without you by my side?" This song is fun and can relate to anyone who has an essential person in their life that you don't know what you'd do without. You by my side, In a free fall, In a landslide, You're the first call, On the bright side of the bad news, You're the sure line of my dark blues, the two sing. Simple, yet such meaningful lyrics in this edgy yet deep song.

The EP also includes a live version of their song "Telephone Games" off of their first EP Gemini. In sum, half of the EP gives you a winter feel while the other half gives you that same, joyful Jack And White sound. The way Brooke can go from happy and positive to sad and longing in this mix of songs is incredible, and the songwriting and musical talents that Jack brings make the entire duo what they are: good by themselves, but even better together. This is another great album from Jack And White and I can't wait for the next!
