Chris Stapleton

If you like (real) country and roots rock, you gotta be digging Chris Stapleton. He's been releasing amazing records, winning Grammys, and making fans for the last few years, all after a longer career as a songwriter for big mainstream country acts like Kenny Chesney and George Strait, and co-writing with people like Sheryl Crow, Vince Gill, and Peter Frampton. Adele has covered him, among many other artists.

He sings with his wife, Morgane Stapleton, who wrote a hit single for Carrie Underwood, and has a solo career of her own. He's from a family of Kentucky coal miners, was class valedictorian, got into Vanderbilt for engineering, writes amazing songs, has an incredible vice, and looks super cool:



Check out his Tiny Desk show from 2015, the year he broke out. Dig the chemistry between him and his wife, amazing...

As good as he is on his albums he’s way better live. The amount of energy and soul he brings to a performance is amazing.

Yeah, if you haven't seen that Tiny Desk thing I linked to above, it is worth the 20 minutes. Totally mesmerizing.
