Jack White Joined by Chris Robinson for Cover of Free’s “I’m a Mover”: Watch
Jack White brought Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson on stage during a Chicago concert for a surprise cover of Free’s “I’m a Mover”. The collaboration stood out because White rarely features guest performers, while also reflecting his tour’s tendency to include lesser-known blues and rock songs.
Robinson sang lead on the 1969 track from Free’s debut album, *Tons of Sobs*, while White played guitar. The appearance took place at Radius in Chicago on Thursday night, during White’s North American tour supporting his latest album, *Frozen Charlotte*, which continues until November.

Explained simply
Jack White is a rock musician best known for The White Stripes and The Raconteurs, in addition to his solo career. He is currently on a North American tour supporting his album Frozen Charlotte, and rarely features guest performers at his concerts.
Chris Robinson is the lead vocalist of The Black Crowes, a rock band that emerged in the early 1990s. The two musicians covered "I'm a Mover", a track from Free's 1969 debut album Tons of Sobs, a British band remembered for hits including "All Right Now".
This collaboration stands out because White typically performs without guest musicians, making such appearances a rarity. His current tour has also featured covers of blues and rock songs beyond the mainstream, suggesting a focus on bringing lesser-known material to audiences.
