Jack White has offered the self-proclaimed “Satanic doo-wop” duo Twin Temple a massive support slot for his September show at the Hollywood Palladium after they were dropped from country star Charley Crockett’s concerts next week.

Taking to Instagram this week, Twin Temple named Crockett and alleged that they were removed from his upcoming shows due to their “Satanic imagery.”

“Unfortunately, that means we will not be able to perform for you next week as planned,” they continued. “We are really disappointed as we were looking forward to getting back out and seeing you, and also what it meant as far as bringing different types of people and music lovers together.

“We are sorry to everyone who was planning to see us. We’re grateful for your support, not only of Twin Temple, but more importantly of artistic freedom. HAIL SATAN!”

White then offered Twin Temple the opportunity to play a massive gig via his Instagram. Sharing a photo of the duo, he captioned the post, “Twin Temple, Would you like to open my show in L.A. on September 29th at the Hollywood Palladium? Let me know. Get in front of me Satan!”

One half of the duo, Alexandra James, graciously accepted Jack White’s invitation. “Unholy hell…. Sir Jack, you have no idea what this means to us,” she wrote, revealing that The White Stripes track, Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground, was one of the first she learned how to play on guitar.

She continued, “Lifelong fans- dead leaves on the dirty ground was one of the first songs I (Alex) ever learned on guitar. We were actually planning on coming to this show. It would be a most infernal pleasure to play the devil’s music with you.”

Responding to the coverage, Charley Crockett took to Facebook, where he posted an image of Johnny Cash in front of a church. He captioned the photo, “If they did it to Jesus, imagine what they’ll do to you.”

In a follow-up post, he targeted Jack White’s political beliefs and wrote, “FUCK TRUMP, FUCK EPSTEIN, BUT HAIL SATAN? NOT ME JACK.”

Crockett has since wiped his Instagram profile, save for a single post where, in a lengthy caption, he explained that he “won’t conform and I’m not sorry.”
