In celebration of the albums, Stapleton will hit the road again this year as part of the expansive “Chris Stapleton’s All-American Road Show” tour.

Chris Stapleton’s
Chris Stapleton’s From A Room, Volume 1 debuted at the top of the Billboard Country Albums Chart. The collection sold 219,000 units (and 202,000 in traditional album sales) to land at No. 1 on the Country chart and at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. This is the highest-selling country debut since Luke Bryan’s Kill the Lights sold 320,000 in its first week in 2015. Stapleton also debuts at No. 1 on the Top Album Sales chart this week (Logic’s Everybody sold 196,000 in album sales, but with over 70 million streams).
★★★★ “From A Room is strikingly focused, sonically and thematically.”
