Hip in Detroit + Obscura Broadcasting Company Give You an Inside Look at Third Man Records Cass Corridor

Jack White is one of the biggest names to come out of Detroit, especially from our generation. He first rose to stardom with his band The White Stripes, and continued his musical career with The Raconteurs and The Dead Weather. But, did you know that in addition to being a rock star, Jack White also has a record label?

Third Man Records was first started by White in 2001 in Detroit. The label has released music for a wide array of artists, you can check out the full list here. In 2009, Third Man opened a physical location for the company in Nashville, but then in 2015, the brand returned to Detroit with a location in the Cass Corridor. Third Man Records Cass Corridor houses a store, vinyl pressing plant, recording studio, and is simply one of the coolest spots in Detroit. When you stop in, you can not only buy a record, but also record your own voice, see a band perform live, or check out records being made right before your eyes. We like to refer to it as Jack White's own Disneyland, where you get swept up in the fandom and fun of it all and end up walking out with all sorts of Third Man swag and being an even bigger fan of Jack White than you were when you walked in. We had a chance to get a behind the scenes look at Third Man Records Cass Corridor with our friends at Obscura Broadcasting Company. Check it out below!
