It was one of the more common questions on the Kicks 96 twitter feeds last night while watching the CMA's. Chris won Male Vocalist of the Year, New Artist of the Year, & Album of the year last night.
So who is Chris Stapleton? Well he is a great song writer having hits like:

Chris's 2015 album "Traveller" won Album of the year last night
You might remember this moment as well. Lady A sat in with Chris after a member of Luke Bryan's family died.
Now we both were hoping that Dierks Bentley would win Male vocalist of the year last night but here's hoping we all witnessed the birth of country music's next star!
