Being a music enthusiast, Chris first formed a band named Mr. Crowe’s Garden in the early 1980s with his brother Rich Robinson and played at the clubs in the Atlanta area.

The band signed to Def American Records and released their debut album titled Shake Your Money Maker in 1990, a year later. Following this, over the span of next years, the band went through several changes and recorded nine studio albums until they went on an indefinite hiatus in 2002.
From the year 2002, Chris embarked on a new journey as a solo artist, releasing a total of five albums till the year 2007. During the time of Chris away from the previous band, he went on to indulge himself among other musicians like himself, which formed a band named New Earth Mud. However, the New Earth Mud only lasted for two years, between 2002 and 2004, as each member parted ways.

During the mid-2000s, the Black Crowes reunited for a brief touring while also releasing some albums, like Brothers of a Feather: Live at the Roxy and Warpaint. And later, in 2010, the band celebrated its 20th anniversary with the release of their new album, Croweology.

Chris Robinson Had Three Wedding
As much as Chris Robinson has got experienced in his professional career, his history is also not short on his personal life. Being linked with many women during his lifetime, he has faced at least three marriages in his lifetime.
So, let’s break his dating life down to understand it better.
Lala Sloatman
Chris Robinson married his first wife, Lala Sloatman – who is the niece of musician Frank Zappa and an actress and model - on 8 September 1996. And after two years of marriage, the couple, unfortunately, decided to part ways but never talked about the reasons behind the decision.
Kate Hudson
It didn’t take long for Chris Robinson to find love again. They subsequently went on to meet sometimes at parties, during the 1998 and 2000. However, the romance didn’t bloom for them until the later year, when the news got out of them being in a live-in dating relationship in 2000.
Chris and Kate – an American actress, model, and fashion entrepreneur, best known for roles in The Skeleton Key, Almost Famous, Mother’s Day, and Marshall, tied the knot on 21 December 2000 in Aspen, Colorado. Their union gave birth to their son named Ryder Russell in 2004.
However, after seven years of living a married life, the couple finalized their divorce in 2007 after splitting in August 2006. Robinson was the one to file for the divorce against his second wife, citing irreconcilable differences as the reason for splitting in November of 2006.
After both of the pair signed for divorce on the legal papers in October of 2007, where both of them will be sharing joint custody between their son, Ryder, and even after their divorce, the former couple seems to be on good terms as they are often seen out together with their respective significant others and during the co-parenting of their son.
Later in early 2017, Robinson filed a petition in the Los Angeles Superior Court to re-evaluate their son’s joint custody agreement. Surprisingly, this case, which was thought to be quite the messy one, ended up with both parties on good terms as they are still going happy with their new form of relationship.
For their son, Ryder’s part, he even gave a huge tribute to his famous father via Instagram Stories, reposting a photo of the musician’s performing on stage while also captioning, "Flying high in Nashville night one. Night 2 tonight!!!!! #ShakeYourMoneyMaker.”
Allison Bridges
Chris Robinson later moved on to marry for the third time with the former model turned yoga instructor and artist manager, Allison Bridges.
The pair first linked in the year 2007 and began dating shortly after. They subsequently forwarded their relationship with marriage two years later, in 2009. While sharing a blissful life together as a married couple, they welcomed a daughter named Cheyenne Genevieve in December 2009.
The family-of-three was also spotted having a brief shopping time together at the Brentwood County Mart, back in early 2010 though they maintained a low-key profile all the time. Unfortunately, their relationship also hit the dead-end as the pair eventually divorced in 2018.
As of now, Chris does not seem to have any kind of romantic relationship with any woman. However, it’s not as if he will not be dating anymore, but he is seemingly living a single life now.
