Chris Stapleton announces “From A Room Vol 2”

Chris Stapleton is the marmite of artists for AUK writers but love his yeastiness or not, “From A Room: Volume 2” has been announced for release on December 1 by Mercury Records Nashville/Decca. The album takes its name from Nashville’s historic RCA Studio A (the capital “A” in “From A Room” – see what he did there?) where it was recorded over the last year with producer Dave Cobb. Along with Stapleton on vocals and guitar and Cobb on acoustic guitar, the album features Morgane Stapleton on harmony vocals as well as longtime band-members J.T. Cure on bass and Derek Mixon on drums.

In addition to seven songs co-written by Stapleton, the album features versions of Kevin Welch’s “Millionaire” and the Homer Banks/Lester Snell-penned song made famous by Pops Staples, “Friendship”. And here, dear reader, is the complete track list.
