White's Third Man Records partner Ben Swank — ordained, he said, by the Universal Life Church Ministry of America — conducted the vows and bassist Dominic Davis served as White's best man. White started the day by releasing his fourth solo album, Fear of the Dawn — the first of two due out this year. During a mid-song breakdown White said he had a question to ask her and pulled out an engagement ring. "Lord knows I feel good right now." "Alright, Detroit. Do you still feel good?"

“Lord knows I feel good right now.” He certainly was not alone. A statue of the moonlit fellow from the cover of “Fear of the Dawn” sat at the rear of the stage, but the real theatrics were provided by White, bassist Dominic Davis, keyboardist Quincy McCrary and drummer Daru Jones, playing (mostly) fast and at times loose with a survey of White’s career, leaning heavily and crowd-pleasingly on his Grammy Award-winning past despite the presence of brand new music. But there was also a ferocious rock ‘n’ roll show to go with it.

Jack White showed everyone on Friday how to make the most out of a single day: it must be the blue hair. Yesterday (April 8), White started the day.

What a wedding!” What a band! White dove straight into The White Stripes’ catalog for his third song of the night with “Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground” from 2001’s White Blood Cells followed by “Love Interruption” from 2012’s grossly-overlooked-these-days Blunderbuss.

Jack White Marries Olivia Jean on Stage at Tour Opener in Detroit (Variety)

Jack White married singer Olivia Jean at his tour opening in Detroit, not long after singing the national anthem at a Detroit Tigers game.

Minutes later, they returned to the stage for an encore that included a wedding ceremony, for which White’s mother, Theresa Gillis, was on hand. Any honeymoon may have to wait a while, as White’s Supply Chain Issues tour continues steady as she goes through May 1, although there is a gap of several weeks before it resumes May 23. Per the account of Detroit Free Press writer Brian McCollum, the headliner was 80 minutes into his set and performing “Hotel Yorba,” which he’d brought Jean out on stage to sing background vocals on, when the show took a detour. “I’ve got a little question for you, Olivia Jean. Will you marry me?” he said. The surprise marriage proposal itself had come just minutes earlier, in the middle of a rendition of “Hotel Yorba.” The song has a lyric, “Let’s get married,” the approach of which was White’s cue to have the band drop out and to get his assistant to start filming the proceedings on a cell phone.

Jack White: Fear of the Dawn review – crackles with energy (The Guardian)

The Nashville-based impresario doubles down on his core creative tenets for an album that's like nothing he's done before.

At the same time, a half-light suffuses this album in which anything goes, dodging the logic of the day. Every single released so far, from Taking Me Back to the Cab Calloway-sampling Hi-De-Ho, featuring Q-Tip, is a bop. The result crackles with a wired energy that doubles down on his core creative tenets, while still sounding like no other White record released previously.
