Kentucky native and former SteelDrivers frontman Chris Stapleton is enjoying a ton of recent attention thanks to his stellar solo debut, Traveller. An accomplished co-writer for a plethora of other big name artists of all genres, the Nashville transplant’s sound combines the best of classic country with the refreshing, revivalist mentality of a growing number of peers who buck the pop country and bro country trends that rule CMT. Unabashed country fan Seth Meyers welcomed Stapleton to Late Night last night to perform bluesy Traveller track “Might as Well Get Stoned,” marking two Nashville artists on major talk shows in one evening. Watch the performance below, and catch Chris live next month at Pilgrimage Fest in Franklin, or Oct. 26 at The Ryman supporting Jason Isbell (if you were lucky enough to grab tickets before they sold out).
