Banjo Whatta ya think? Its a shorter version maybe two minutes in total. Chris Stapleton has opened a LOT of new ears young and old alike to the music of Sturgill , Cody, Colter and Tyler ,even great bluegrass artists from Billy Strings to Molly Tuttle etc and from there they dig deeper and discover everyone from George Jones and Waylon Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, Emmylou Harris etc the only reason these people never knew they loved Country music before hearing Chris was because they thought Country was the crap being played on radio (i.e. Ron is a first-rate guitar picker who duplicates George Jones vocal style with uncanny accuracy.

Your a poor judge of singing skill/ talent if you dont feel Stapletons voice, you are truly dead inside. Sam Wayne Really? Hes short haired with a goatee wearing New Balance shoes. Low quality copycats. They look left wing. I dont think they fall off in the traditional scene, their genre did just a switcheroo on them. November 12, 2015 @ Agree that time will tell if he bends to what the mainstream wants. Oh and Waylons. But I think they see the writing on the wall, and if they dont come out with a record with significantly more substance, theyre going to flop. November 11, 2015 @ someone tell him to keep writing.

They should not be recorded by anyone else; that would take away the magic. The day after the CMAs, I specifically got challenged from people saying Chris Stapleton is not the next Randy Travis. Nobody will be the next Randy Travis, just like nobody will be the next Waylon Jennings. Everything he has PERFORMED has been from the roots of country, blue grass, and the blues. At this point Im unsure if everybody is messing with me or that everybody is so stuck in their world that they dont even realize the difference. He is what he is, a mainstream southern rock bluesy country singer songwriter that has written as many bro songs as his own..he did so probably to support himself at the time. His fashion choices have evolved significantly, but I dont allow that to influence my opinion of his music. However, the very specific way he was able to get himself a major label deal, and walk away from the 2015 CMA Awards with three trophies was by working the system as a songwriter.

Stapleton doesn't deviate from what he does best: simple, honest story songs that lean heavy on his once-in-a-lifetime voice. If they leverage playing bro country songs into being allowed to make the type of album they want to make, rather than something pumped out of the Nashville Machine, we should give them the benefit of the doubt, too.

In all honesty, I was expecting a little more from Chris, considering the outstanding and mind-blowing work hes done in the past. Now I did go a little crazy @the end of Might As Well Get Stoned & even then, the solo keeps going, keeps going, keeps going.. Thats what screams COUNTRY to me. Chris sounds like a blue-eyed soul singer trying too hard to be an outlaw, or vice-versa. Charlie He is very country in his lyrics and attitude, but Im not completely sold on his style, just like I was never sold to Willie Nelson. November 11, 2015 @ Ill break it down to high school stereotypes. So why not generate all this buzz about somebody who after all IS a Nashville insider? Say it aint so! Just my 2 cents.

Ive absolutely loved Stapletons music since the first Steeldrivers album. Oh snap! All Im asking is for certain traditional country fans to pump the brakes a little bit before anointing Stapleton the most talented/end all/conqueror riding in on a white horse to save country music.
