Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes has been in the spotlight for multiple recent events, including performing a cover of Free's 'I'm a Mover' with Jack White in Chicago, reflecting on his past demand for greater band ownership, and responding to backlash over a crowd interaction at a Florida show where he criticized a patriotic chant. He also acknowledged giving confidence to other musicians, such as Marc Labelle of Dirty Honey, during a period of artistic growth.
