STAPLETON'S MIDNIGHT TRAIN
TO SALES

Saturday Night Live doesn't often move the sales needle, but for Chris Stapleton it sure as shit did. The Mercury Nashville troubadour's got three albums in the Top 10 and his new duet with Justin Timberlake, "Say Something," has knocked the mighty Drake off the #1 perch on the tracks side.

Stapleton's latest, From A Room, Vol. 2, is currently #3 on the Album side, while Traveller and From A Room, Vol. 1 are at #5 and #6, respectively.

On both "Midnight Train to Memphis" and "Hard Livin'," Stapleton was joined by fellow country renegade Sturgill Simpson, whose voice and guitar nearly matched the star's in ferocity. In case you missed the show, take a look below.
