Jack White has been in the spotlight with a tour recap video from 2026, live performances in Newcastle and London showcasing his guitar prowess, and a tribute to Dolly Parton through a live cover of 'Jolene' and a reissue of his 'Acoustic Recordings 1998–2016'. Meanwhile, the Ocean Way Festival in Santa Monica was canceled due to beach erosion from Hurricane Marie, and some artists, including Charley Crockett, have questioned the tone of certain tributes.
