We’re keeping our fingers crossed that Jack Black gets in on the fun with his pal again.
Jack White — who served as the musical guest on “Saturday Night Live” alongside the “School of Rock” host on April 4 — just announced he’s added a North American leg to his 2026 world tour.
The U.S. and Canadian portion of the run is slated to go down at theaters, music halls, clubs, auditoriums, amphitheaters and festivals first in July and then from September through November.
While out and about, the former White Stripes frontman is slated to make a trio of New York stops. They’re scheduled to go down at:
Brooklyn Paramount
Brooklyn, NY
Saturday, July 11
Brooklyn Paramount
Brooklyn, NY
Sunday, July 12
Borderland Festival
East Aurora, NY
Friday, Sept. 18
Headliners joining White at the Borderland Festival include big names like Alabama Shakes, Lord Huron, Pixies, The Head and The Heart and Jesse Welles.
Ahead of the tour announcement, the virtuosic axeman was revealed as a surprise special guest for Coachella this weekend, swung into “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” and dropped a pair of fiery singles titled “Derecho Demonico” and “G.O.D. And The Broken Ribs,” which he delivered with gusto on the recent Jack Black/Jack White episode.
On his last official outing in winter 2025 (that came on the heels of the release of his sixth studio album “No Name”), White typically performed 20-25 songs per show. At his Brooklyn Paramount gig on Feb. 12, he rocked 21 tracks including White Stripes fan favorites “Seven Nation Army,” “Icky Thump” and “Hotel Yorba” as well as Raconteurs tunes, Dead Weather deep cuts, ditties from his solo career and stunning Iggy Pop and Booker T. and the MG’s covers.
“…everything he takes to the stage from metal to garage rock to soul-searching blues to singalong clap along jams to folksy Celtic Americana with sing-songy rhymes…sounds just as good live as [it] does on his immaculately produced albums,” The Post reported in an emphatic review of the concert.
They added that their only disappointment of the night was “that the show ended.”

Jack White new music
“No Name” just might have the most unconventional record release story for any album…ever.
In July 2025, unmarked vinyl discs were discreetly put in shopping bags at White’s Third Man Records shops. There was no notice or promotion. Just a sweet surprise.
As for the record, “No Name” is a throwback to White’s signature bluesy garage rock. Tight harmonies, hooky bass lines, freewheeling yet controlled guitar solos and unhinged vocals meld together to create something radio-friendly, personal and endlessly listenable all at once.
Personally, we can’t get enough of the bleating, barroom anthem “That’s How I’m Feeling,” strummy, thrumming “What’s The Rumpus?” and “Underground” which sprinkles in sumptuous hints of tropicalia.
Make sure to check out the tension-building, talk-y, intentionally over-enunciated “Archbishop Harold Holmes,” too. It’s a toe-tappin’ headbanger that will leave a smile on your face. In short, the tune makes every part of your body react. That’s the power of Jack White.
To hear for yourself, you can listen to “No Name” in its glorious entirety here.
In regards to the new singles, “G.O.D. And The Broken Ribs” is a muscly, rollicking crowd-pleaser with fuzzed-out guitar, in-your-face attitude and White’s singular falsetto. “Derecho Demonico” slows things down a beat and embraces the Detroit native’s more playful side.

Jack White on “SNL”
As noted above, Jack White lent his talents to the April 3 Jack White-hosted episode of “SNL.”
At the show, he performed his aforementioned recently-released singles and also popped in on Black’s “Five Timer’s Club” monologue (where he gave Marcello Hernandez’s recurring character Domingo a whack with a frying pan) and contributed to the country-tastic, pre-taped “Words To Live By” music video.
You can catch his two songs below.
Huge 2026 tours
Can’t wait to rock out at a show with bluesmen and metalheads live this year?
Honestly, same.
Here are just six (!) acts we can’t wait to see IRL these next few months.
• RUSH
• AC/DC
Also, be sure to check out Metallica’s Las Vegas Sphere residency that gets underway in October. It’ll surely be the musical event of the year.
