Great White broke up in 2001. Within the next few years, the band had performed as "Jack Russell's Great White", which had also made headlines when, in 2003, a Rhode Island nightclub at which they were playing caught fire due to their negligence, leading to the deaths of 100 people, including band member Ty Longley. By 2006, "Jack Russell's Great White" had reverted its name back to its original name Great White. After more than three decades as their singer, Russell left the band in 2011, again using the moniker "Jack Russell's Great White". Great White has since continued on without Russell, who was first replaced by Terry Ilous, and then by current singer Mitch Malloy, who has been a member of the band since 2018.
