Charley Crockett Drops Twin Temple From Two July Shows Over Satanic Imagery

Jack White offered Twin Temple a September opening slot, highlighting how image concerns shape tour bookings.

Overview

  • Twin Temple said they were informed Wednesday that Charley Crockett removed them from two upcoming shows because of the duo’s overt Satanic imagery.
  • Crockett confirmed the decision to Rolling Stone with the remark, “I thought they were like Black Sabbath but they ain’t. Not today, Satan.”
  • Crockett’s public listings no longer show Twin Temple for the July 14 Troutdale, Oregon date and the July 18 Paso Robles, California date.
  • Hours after the removals became public, Jack White publicly invited Twin Temple to open his September 29 show at the Hollywood Palladium.
  • Twin Temple still have several September support dates with Danzig and the episode underscores how last-minute vetting, audience fit and reputational risk can reshape short-term tour plans while peers can rapidly offer alternative opportunities.
