Chris Stapleton Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Chris Stapleton’s past few days have brought equal parts excitement and concern, showing just how much he remains at the heart of country music headlines and fan conversations. According to American Songwriter, Stapleton was recently forced to postpone his highly anticipated October 10th and 11th shows in Hollywood Florida after coming down with a particularly nasty bout of bronchitis. He broke the news personally on his Instagram, apologizing and sharing that both concerts have been rescheduled for January 10th and 11th of next year. Most fans were quick to flood his social channels with well wishes rather than complaints, a testament to Stapleton’s enduring likability and the goodwill he’s built with his audience over the past decade.
This interruption hasn’t slowed his momentum elsewhere. Whiskey Riff highlights that Stapleton’s All-American Road Show continues to expand, with major new dates added for 2026. He’ll be starting in Las Vegas in February before heading to Oklahoma and Connecticut for a slate of sold-out shows, all featuring his full band and no opener—a show of confidence in his own star power. MusicRow reports these six new “Evening with Chris Stapleton” shows are just the latest addition to a landmark year marked by award nominations and streaming milestones. His debut album Traveller hit its ten-year milestone this fall—still riding high as the first country album to spend more than 500 weeks on the Billboard 200, now certified seven-times Platinum with over 11 billion streams globally.
On the awards front, Stapleton is again in the thick of Grammys buzz. As announced by Country Standard Time on November 7th, he’s been nominated for multiple country categories at the 2026 Grammys which will air February 1st. One standout: his track “Bad As I Used To Be” from the F1 The Movie soundtrack landed a nomination for Best Country Solo Performance, and he’ll face off against industry heavyweights like Tyler Childers and Lainey Wilson.
As if all this weren’t enough, NFL and Whiskey Riff confirm that Chris Stapleton is set to headline one of the official concert series leading up to Super Bowl LX alongside Sierra Ferrell, proving his mainstream appeal isn’t confined to country charts.
On the business side, recent months have seen Stapleton’s name linked to Traveller, a new whiskey collaboration with Buffalo Trace Distillery, emphasizing his expanding brand beyond music, as noted by his official website and media coverage. He remains highly active on social media, using Instagram and X to communicate directly with fans regarding rescheduled tour dates, behind-the-scenes studio moments, and heartfelt apologies for any disruptions.
Looking just ahead, Under the Big Sky festival organizers and MusicRow have both confirmed that Stapleton will headline the Montana-based festival in summer 2026, keeping him poised for a massive live presence as soon as his vocal rest ends.
