HIGHER
by Chris Stapleton
With unruly long hair, a Stetson and ragged beard falling to his chest, Kentucky's Chris Stapleton looks like the guy on a reality show building an off-grid cabin in Alaska.
But this gifted songwriter - eight Grammys, 14 Country Music Association awards and nine from the Academy of Country Music - fills stadia across the States. He has duetted with Adele on the reissue of her Easy on Me (which got her on to the country charts), collaborated with Ed Sheeran and Sheryl Crow, and wrote huge country hits for George Strait and Kenny Chesney, among others. He's recorded with Taylor Swift (I Bet You Think About Me) and Justin Timberlake (Say Something).
Stapleton makes pop artists cool for country listeners and takes his brand of country to a mainstream audience.
