He can sellout venues and he strides into NRG Stadium with eight Grammys, 14 Country Music Association Awards and 10 Academy of Country Music Awards.
Chris Stapleton performs at Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo Thursday, March 17, 2022, at NRG Stadium in Houston.If Chris Stapleton never recorded a note of music, he’d still be a huge success by country music standards. The Kentucky native has penned nearly 200 songs, with dozens of them turning to hits as sung by such artists as George Strait, Kenny Chesney, Brad Paisley, Kelly Clarkson, Taylor Swift and others.
That duality makes sense when one considers some of Stapleton’s previous endeavors: He has fronted both a bluegrass band, the SteelDrivers, and a rock band, the Jompson Brothers. In 2015, he released an album of his own, “Traveller,” which allowed Stapleton to braid all those elements — the rock, the country, the soul and the bluegrass — with his seemingly instinctual knack for writing a hit song. And that song struck a chord.
