Chris Stapleton IS Soul
We’re 99% sure that you have heard of former Steeldriver member Chris Stapleton by now- well you should have heard or seen his name this morning all over Facebook!
We are not entirely against the genre of country when it sounds like Chris Stapleton, although several thousands of diehard country fans are hating on his CMA duo performance last night with pop-singer Justin Timberlake. Even if you are anti-country, we beg you to give this awesome southern, soulful song that is sweeping the nation a chance!
“You’re as smooth as Tennessee whiskey, you’re as sweet as strawberry wine…You’re as warm as a glass of brandy and honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time…”
As fans of the great SRV we know that you can appreciate a great guitar player, but we also know that blues is what rocks your boat- although this is no BB King ballad, Chris really has a way with his deep, southern vocals to pluck away at your heartstrings…
