Jack White & Chris Robinson Rock Chicago with Free’s ‘I’m a Mover’!

Chicago witnessed an unforgettable night of rock and roll as Jack White, currently on his highly acclaimed tour, brought a special guest to the stage: Chris Robinson, the dynamic frontman of The Black Crowes. In a move that delighted fans at the Radius venue, the rock titans didn't delve into their own extensive catalogs. Instead, they delivered a powerful and electric rendition of Free’s classic 1970s deep cut, "I'm a Mover."

The performance was a testament to pure rock & roll fervor. White, known for his multi-instrumental prowess, took a step back from lead vocals, focusing on his guitar and letting Robinson take center stage with his signature wailing vocals. A video shared by White himself captured the raw energy of the moment, showcasing a true collaboration between two rock giants.

This surprise appearance is just one highlight from White's ongoing tour, which he kicked off on July 10th, coinciding with the release of his eighth solo album, Frozen Charlotte. The tour, which spans through the fall and includes overseas dates in Europe, has been notable for its phone-free policy, encouraging attendees to fully immerse themselves in the live experience. Each show has featured an exciting array of deep cuts, from both his White Stripes era and his solo work. Later that same Chicago night, White also showcased his blues influences by covering Robert Johnson’s "Phonograph Blues."

White has a history of bringing unexpected guests on stage. Earlier in the tour, during a sold-out show in Brooklyn, he invited his daughter, Scarlett, to join him on bass for a performance of The White Stripes’ 1999 track "Cannon." These impromptu collaborations and the focus on less-expected tracks solidify White’s current trek as one of the must-see rock shows of the year, continually proving his ability to deliver a unique and electrifying experience.
