About Chris Stapleton

Christopher Alvin Stapleton was born April 15, 1978 in Lexington, Kentucky and raised in nearby Staffordsville, a coal-country pocket of Johnson County where his father worked in the mines and his mother kept a record collection that ran the gauntlet from gospel to soul to outlaw country. He started at Vanderbilt on an engineering track in the late 1990s, dropped out after a year, and made the four-hour drive over the mountain to Nashville with a guitar and the early outline of a songwriter's life. The first decade in Music Row was a slow build: a publishing deal at Sea Gayle, a co-write credit on Kenny Chesney's "Never Wanted Nothing More" that hit No. 1 in 2007, more than a hundred and seventy major-label cuts across the back catalogue of country radio's A-list — George Strait's "Love's Gonna Make It Alright", Luke Bryan's "Drink a Beer", Darius Rucker's "Come Back Song", Adele's "If It Hadn't Been For Love" — and parallel bandleader gigs fronting the SteelDrivers, an acoustic-bluegrass outfit, and the Jompson Brothers, a louder Southern-rock side project. By the time he signed his Mercury Nashville solo deal and started recording Traveller in 2014, the catalogue of unrecorded Stapleton originals was a decade deep.

Traveller came out in May 2015 to respectful reviews and modest sales. Then came the November 4th CMA Awards broadcast: New Artist of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year, Album of the Year, and a closing-slot performance of "Tennessee Whiskey" and "Drink You Away" with Justin Timberlake that crashed Apple's music store inside an hour. Traveller went to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 the following week, eventually selling more than four million copies in the U.S. alone. From A Room Vol. 1 followed in 2017, debuted at No. 2 on the all-genre chart and won the Grammy for Best Country Album. From A Room Vol. 2 closed out the year. Starting Over arrived in 2020 and added a Grammy sweep across Best Country Album, Best Country Song and Best Country Solo Performance. Higher landed in November 2023, debuted in the top five on both the country and all-genre charts, and slotted seamlessly into a touring catalogue that needed no padding. Eight Grammys, fifteen-plus CMA Awards, ten-plus ACM Awards, the All-American Road Show that has been continuously on the road since 2017, and a Mercury Nashville home base that has never once tried to chase him toward whatever the format's current trend happens to be.
