Stuart for a special performance of "Friendship" and "I'll Take You There." Written by Homer
Banks and Lester Snell, "Friendship" was originally made famous by Mavis' father, Pops Staples, and is featured on Stapleton's latest album, From A Room: Volume 2.
These milestones cap off a triumphant year for Stapleton, who recently wrapped his massive 2018 All-American Road Show tour, which featured sold-out shows at New York's Madison
Square Garden, Denver's Pepsi Center, Atlanta's Lakewood Amphitheater and L.A.'s The Forum among many others.
Moreover, earlier this year, Stapleton was awarded Best Country Album (From A Room: Volume 1), Best Country Song ("Broken Halos") and Best Country Solo Performance ("
Either Way") at the 60th GRAMMY Awards, Male Vocalist of the Year and Album of the Year (From A Room: Volume 1 as both artist and producer) at the 53rd Academy of Country
