Cult rock duo The White Stripes have reassured fans drummer Meg White is recovering from a medical crisis - by returning to the studio to record new songs.

The pair scrapped a number of tour dates in September after frontman Jack White revealed his partner was suffering from "acute anxiety," adding she was "unable to travel at this time."

But, according to a post on the group's website, White is well and the duo are recording new tracks.

The online message alerts fans to the fact the duo has "recorded three never-before-heard original songs (with a special collaboration) and one unique new version of a song from (new album) 'Icky Thump.'"

Jack White also reveals the group has filmed a new video for an as-yet-unnamed song.

I hope you ladies get another concert date soon. I know how much that show meant to you both.

I'm am still trying to get over the disappointment. If they reschedule LA, I hope it's in a better place than where they were originally going to play. Somewhere smaller like the place they were going to play in Austin where I went all the way to see them! OK, I'm calming down now.

I'm glad to hear Meg is recovering.
