Jack White Shares Live EP, Announces $20 Student Tickets For ‘No Name’ Tour

Just days after addressing critics who expect lengthy shows from artists, a charitable Jack White is giving back to his fans with a new live EP and an affordable ticket deal for students.

Taking to social media on Monday (Feb. 10), White revealed that students will be able to purchase $20 tickets at all upcoming dates on his ongoing No Name Tour.

“A limited number of student tickets will be available to purchase in-person only at each venue’s box office on show day,” White explained. “These tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis with a valid student ID (1 ticket per student ID).” More information about this ticketing approach is available on the website for each venue on the tour.

White, who is himself a noted critic of high ticket prices, is following in the footsteps of other bands who have taken a similar approach to capping the cost of tickets in the past. While DIY post-hardcore outfit Fugazi were famous for their $5 entry fee, recent years have seen the likes of The Cure attempting to make their gigs affordable too. 

In 2024, frontman Robert Smith claimed ticket sellers were “driven by greed”, and capped the price of some tickets to just $20. In some cases, however, the fees were more expensive than the tickets themselves.

Alongside White’s recent generosity, the veteran musician also unveiled his No Name Live EP on Wednesday (Feb. 12). The five-song release includes a handful of live recordings of cuts from his 2024 record No Name, including “That’s How I’m Feeling”, “Archbishop Harold Holmes”, “Morning at Midnight”, and “Rough on Rats (If You’re Asking).” 

These recordings were taken from U.S. performances in Denver, Atlanta, New Haven, and Dallas, respectively, with an additional appearance of “Old Scratch Blues” recorded during his trip down to Hobart in Australia.
