Chris Stapleton Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Chris Stapleton has had a packed and highly visible week, confirming yet again why he remains at the top tier of country music. Kicking things off, Stapleton was front and center during the September 5th broadcast of Austin City Limits’ 50th season, delivering what KPBS called a “scorching” set that featured staple hits and new gems from his 2025 Grammy-nominated album Higher. That show, which is now available for streaming, saw Stapleton joined by his wife Morgane for intimate harmonies—highlighting a career-spanning performance that underscored his standing as a 10-time Grammy winner and reigning CMA Awards Male Vocalist of the Year for an unprecedented eighth consecutive time. The performance left live and streaming audiences on their feet, especially when he soared through nominated songs like It Takes a Woman and classics like Cold.
Days earlier, Paris was the setting for another major headline moment as Post Malone stunned fans by bringing Stapleton onstage at La Défense Arena for their first-ever live duet of California Sober, the standout track from Post’s 2024 album F-1Trillion. According to Holler and JamBase, the crowd erupted as Stapleton, who is not currently on a solo tour in Europe, made the surprise appearance—again cementing his “legend” status and showing how central he’s become to crossover country and pop collaborations. That same Paris trip doubled as a family affair for the Stapletons; Parade reports that Chris, wife Morgane, and their 14-year-old daughter Ada made a rare public appearance alongside fashion insiders at Post Malone’s runway debut for his brand Austin Post Apparel. Photos show a relaxed and stylish Stapleton looking distinctly polished in sharp formal wear, breaking from his signature country look. While the family is famously private, the Paris outing gave fans a glimpse into their world—and speculation about whether Ada’s presence hints at future interests in music or fashion remains just that, speculation.
On the industry side, Jason Aldean fueled chatter by declaring on the Armchair Expert podcast that Chris Stapleton is, in his words, “the best male vocalist in country right now”—praise that resonates, especially from a chart-dominating peer. Aldean praised Stapleton’s signature bluesy, gut-wrenching delivery, citing his refusal to chase trends as the source of his enduring appeal.
No major personal controversies or unconfirmed stories have surfaced about Stapleton this week, and he continues to maintain a professional, low-key social media profile. The family remains protective of their children’s privacy and makes selective appearances, a rarity in today’s celebrity climate.
