From A Room: Volume 2

Chris Stapleton’s latest album From A Room: Volume 2 was released this weekend on December 1st. I usually listen to albums the day they come out, but this weekend was all Christmas. Putting up the tree, decorations, and of course the music. Bit early for the music, personally, so when I finally got some time to listen to From A Room: Volume 2 it was a real treat.

Chris Stapleton cannot make a bad song. Seriously, dude just can’t do it. Even when the premise of a song has been done a million times (“Millionaire”), Stapleton still makes it sound so damn good. The 9 song album is filled with absolute gems, one for almost every mood. From a drinkin’ song, and some great ballads your favourite song from the album could change daily.

If you have a road trip coming up I’d recommend adding “Hard Livin'”  and “Midnight Train To Memphis” to your driving playlist.

If you have ever caught yourself complaining about all the new country music not sounding like “country” Chris is your guy. No pop here. With a gritty voice and amazing guitar riffs Chris Stapleton is one of the best story tellers in music.

Take a break from the holiday tunes and check out From A Room: Volume 2.
