AT THE 51ST ANNUAL CMA AWARDS
Chris Stapleton’s From A Room: Volume 2 will be released December 1 on Mercury Records Nashville/Decca and is now available to pre-order digitally and with exclusive limited-edition bundles.
The multiple Grammy, CMA and ACM Award-winning musician first
shared the album news from stage during the first of two sold-out shows at
Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena this past Friday. Of the special hometown
concerts, CMT praises, “…cemented his status as one of music’s greatest talents
to emerge from the current decade.”
The forthcoming album takes its name from Nashville’s
historic RCA Studio A (the capital “A” in “From A
Room”) where it was recorded over the last year with Grammy Award-winning
producer Dave Cobb. Along with Stapleton on vocals and
guitar and Cobb on acoustic guitar, the album features Morgane
Stapleton on harmony vocals as well as longtime band-members J.T.
Cure on bass and Derek Mixon on drums.
In addition to seven songs co-written by Stapleton, the album features versions
of Kevin Welch’s “Millionaire” and the Homer Banks/Lester Snell-penned song
made famous by Pops Staples, “Friendship” See below for complete track list.
Volume 2 follows the release of From A Room: Volume 1, which debuted earlier this year at #1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart, #2 on the Billboard Top 200 chart and, with its RIAA Gold certification, remains the #1 best-selling country album of 2017. Stapleton’s 2015 double-platinum solo debut, Traveller, is currently the #2 best-selling country album of the year. The release of From A Room: Volume 1 also debuted at #2 on The Official UK Americana Albums Chart with Stapleton already making his mark in the UK after popular demand saw the country star perform at high profile events such as Country To Country Festival at the 02 arena and the release of his album Traveller caught the attention of UK publications such as The Guardian and Daily Telegraph.From A Room: Volume 2 - In stores Dec 1 and available for pre-order now - https://t.co/YTcIPbr9LB pic.twitter.com/DbMvjmzpkx— Chris Stapleton (@ChrisStapleton) 16 October 2017
The critically acclaimed album, which Rolling Stone awarded
four stars declaring, “From A Room is strikingly focused,
sonically and thematically,” was recently nominated for Album of
the Year at the 51st annual CMA Awards. Stapleton
is also nominated for Entertainer of the Year and Male
Vocalist of the Year at the awards, which will be broadcast on
ABC live from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Wednesday, November 8 at 8/7c.
