Jack White Unleashes ‘No Name’ Cuts at Triumphant Detroit Concert
White and his band turned in ferocious treatments of everything they touched, without ever losing control of the songs.
Just two days after playing the Pentaport Rock Festival in South Korea, White and his quartet were on stage Monday night (Aug. 5) at Saint Andrew’s Hall in his native Detroit, tearing through a characteristically frenzied, nearly 100-minute show that served as the album release celebration for No Name. And before the White Stripes’ “Hotel Yorba,” meanwhile, he quipped that “I have to be careful; the last time I played this song in Detroit I got married” — referring to his on-stage proposal and marriage to Olivia Jean on April 8, 2022, on the opening night of his Supply Chain Issues Tour at the nearby Masonic Temple Auditorium. Mostly, though, White and the band — longtime bassist Dominic Davis, keyboardist Bobby Emmett and Raconteurs/Greenhornes drummer Patrick Keller — turned in ferocious treatments of everything they touched, filling the performances with improvisations, vamps and musical asides without ever losing control of the songs.
