Four Stars (stylized as "★★★★" or ) is the fourth studio album by rock band The Greenhornes, it is available on iTunes, and the CD and LP released on November 9, 2010. It is their first studio album in eight years, with Dual Mono in 2002 and their first original release since East Grand Blues, an EP released in 2005. After the recording and release of East Grand Blues and their compilation album Sewed Soles in 2005, the group was on temporary hiatus, and Patrick Keeler and Jack Lawrence formed The Raconteurs with Detroit friends Jack White and Brendan Benson. After recording two albums and immense touring through North America, the UK and Australia, the group announced they would be taking a break and returning to their other bands. During this time, Lawrence and Keeler also performed as "The Do-Whatters", Jack White's rhythm band for a collaboration with Loretta Lynn on her album Van Lear Rose. After these projects, Jack Lawrence and Patrick Keeler reunited with Craig Fox again in Ohio, where they recorded Four Stars in mid-2010.
