Jack White
Jack White has announcing an extensive touring schedule, plotting a global run of shows that will keep him occupied for most of the next six months.
White’s current run of shows have been running relatively consistently since the surprise release of his No Name record in July. In addition to shows in Europe and the U.K., White has been performing club shows throughout the US over the past few months, with a show at Mexico City’s Corona Capital scheduled for Sunday (Nov. 17).

From there, he’ll visit Hong Kong and Vietnam ahead of an Australian and New Zealand tour throughout December. He’ll hit the road again in February for dates in Canada and the north-eastern U.S, before visiting Japan for five shows in March. From early April until late May, White will remain in North America with shows set for the U.S. and western Canada. All told, 51 dates are currently on his schedule.

This carefully-planned itinerary does somewhat fly in the face of his previous comments where he noted that many upcoming dates would be announced with little advance notice.
“Hello, and love to all the peoples of the world out there. Lotta folk asking about when we are going to announce ‘tour dates,’ well, we don’t know what to tell you but the tour already started at the Legion a couple of weeks ago,” White wrote in August in response to fans asking for a formal tour announce
“People keep saying that these are ‘Pop up shows’ we’ve been playing, well, you can call them whatever you want, but we are on tour right now. These are the ‘shows.’”
Alongside the announcement of the tour dates, White has also shared the release of new track “You Got Me Searching”, which serves as the B-side to “That’s How I’m Feeling” from his No Name record. Though not issued as an official single, response to the tune has been overwhelmingly positive, with White receiving his first solo placement atop Billboard’s Alternative Airplay chart.

Jack White is not hiding his feelings about the result of the recent U.S. election.
The prolific musician, who filed a copyright lawsuit against President-elect Donald Trump in September with his White Stripes bandmate Meg White, took to social media on Wednesday (Nov. 6) to share his thoughts about Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris at the polls.
“Trump won the popular vote. End of story,” White wrote on his post. “Americans chose a known, obvious fascist and now America will get whatever this wannabe dictator wants to enact from here on in.”

White’s post was paired with a text image of a Turkish proverb to higlight his apparent incredulity at Americans voting against their own interests. As he continued, he noted the realities of what a second Trump term would entail, specifically mentioning the implementation of Project 2025, a nationwide abortion ban, mass deportations, and much more.

“It’s absolutely dumbfounding that this con man succeeded in pulling the wool over so many Americans eyes not once, but twice,” he added.
“The racist, impeached, convicted felon and convicted rapist who stole national secrets and hid them in his bathroom, who told us to inject bleach, who wanted to fix hurricanes with nuclear weapons, who insulted handicap people, called military veterans suckers, who incited an insurrection that invaded the nation’s capital for God sakes (!!!), the failed business man who’s ventures have all gone bankrupt, a fake Christian selling bibles and sneakers like a carnival side show, etc etc etc.,” White wrote.
White closed his post by pointing out how Trump actively works against some of his biggest supporters, including Christians, immigrants, veterans, minorities, women, and working class Americans.
“All those rich pricks riding in their Cybertrucks listening to their Rogan and Bannon and Alex Jones podcasts are laughing all the way to the bank looking forward to their tax cuts that don’t apply to the middle class,” he concluded. “And not just with the electoral college this time, but the American people with the popular vote showed that the citizens placed him in power and now deserve whatever evils he’s going to enact.”
White’s historical disdain for Trump is well-documented, with both he and Meg White criticising Trump’s “illegal” usage of their 2003 single “Seven Nation Army” in his 2016 campaign by noting they were “disgusted by this association”.
Trump again decided to use The White Stripes‘ track for his campaign earlier this year, with White’s threats of litigation resulting in a lawsuilt filed in September. The suit specifically accused Trump and his campaign of “flagrant misappropriation” of one of the “most well-known and influential musical works of all time.”

The growing list of celebrities supporting former President Donald Trump continues to grow, and Jack White is over it, calling them “disgusting.”
On Monday (July 10), the White Stripes frontman expressed his disdain for those notable celebrities who were spotted embracing the twice-impeached former president this past weekend. White posted his thoughts on Instagram, writing in the caption: “Anybody who ‘normalizes’ or treats this disgusting fascist, racist, con man, disgusting piece of shit Trump with any level of respect is ALSO disgusting in my book.”
He continued: “That’s you Joe Rogan, you Mel Gibson, you Mark Wahlberg, you Guy Fieri. This is a statement from me, not a discussion/debate.” The 48-year-old has turned off the post’s comments. To date, it has received over 84,000 likes.
The photos in White’s post first show Trump walking into T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada during the UFC 290 event on Saturday (July 8) alongside UFC President Dana White. Dana White wasn’t named in the caption, but he’s been an avid supporter of Trump for years. The second photo in the post showed him greeting Trump as he appeared ringside. The initial image showed Mark Wahlberg, who wasn’t at the event. The next image depicted Food Network star Guy Fieri happily chatting with Trump. The last photo in the post was a screen grab showing Mel Gibson in the midst of a crowd delivering a salute in Trump’s direction.
Fieri’s embrace of Trump shocked many who saw the photos, but others mentioned by White have been previously linked to Trump and other far-right figures for years. Rogan has vehemently denied his support on his Joe Rogan Experience podcast. Wahlberg has never openly expressed being a right-wing supporter save for one comment he made about those critical of Trump after the 2016 election: “You know, it just goes to show you that people aren’t listening to [them] anyway,” the Uncharted star said at the time.
“A lot of Hollywood is living in a bubble. They’re pretty out of touch with the common person, the everyday guy out there providing for their family,” Wahlberg said.
