The loaded Supply Chain Issues tour marks White’s first headline tour in four years. The slate of shows will begin on April 8 in support of the rock singer’s fourth studio album Fear of the Dawn, arriving on the same date via Third Man Records, and its companion record Entering Heaven Alive, set for release on July 22.

The double album follows a period of pause for White, who at one point during the pandemic stepped back from writing any music for eight months. When he put pen to paper again, two dozen songs poured out.

“I started writing a lot of songs, and they were in all different directions: some incredibly heavy; almost some like speed metal; some sounded so gentle. I ended up with 20, 25 songs,” White told Rolling Stone. “People don’t respond well to double albums these days. I wanted to put them out on the same day, but there’s no way we could press all that vinyl and have them all out on the same day.”
