Charley Crockett Says He “Lost a Lot of Respect” For Jack White After Satanic Doo-Wop Group Controversy

Charley Crockett revealed in a social media post on Tuesday that he had "lost a lot of respect" for Jack White following a controversy involving his band, Twin Temple. Crockett explained that he initially did not kick Twin Temple off his tour dates because of their Satanic imagery in their production requests. However, after giving the matter some thought, he decided it was not suitable for an all ages audience and offered to pay them in full.

Twin Temple accepted the offer and continued their tour with Jack White. In response to White's involvement, Crockett criticized him for not speaking out against the band's political stance when they were in The White Stripes. Crockett also acknowledged his own mistake in letting Twin Temple slip through and accepting responsibility for the controversy.

The country singer is set to continue his "Age of the Ram Tour" in August, while White will begin his North American tour in September. Meanwhile, Twin Temple will embark on their own fall tour and release a new album in October. Fans can find tickets for Crockett, White, and Twin Temple shows on Vivid Seats, where they can save money by using promo code CONSEQUENCE20 at checkout.
