Jack White was joined by on stage by his daughter, Scarlett, during his concert at Irving Plaza in New York City on Monday night.
Scarlett, 18, is the oldest child of White and Karen Elson. She seems to have taken after her father’s musical acumen, as she played bass guitar on two tracks from his latest album, No Name—”Archbishop Harold Holmes” and “Underground.” On Monday, Scarlett had the chance to back her father live on the former song during the encore of his Irving Plaza set.
In a recent interview with Consequence, Jack described Scarlett as a “great” bassist, but emphasized letting her carve out her own musical path. “She likes doing her own thing, and I like her doing her own thing, so once in a while we might touch base here and there, but, I like her doing her own thing, and I think that’s where she feels comfortable, too.”
Earlier today, White detailed an initiative to offer discounted tickets for students at all stops on his ongoing “No Name” tour.He also dropped a new live EP, featuring five songs recordings from the 2024 leg of his tour.
