Last night was an epic night for country music…and Chris Stapleton. The 49th CMA Awards were held tonight at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, and the up and coming country star taking home three awards for the evening.
The big voiced (and big bearded) singer took all three of the categories in which he was nominated, winning awards for New Artist of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year and Album of the Year for “Traveller”.
The highlight of the evening was no doubt the duet from the evenings big winner and Justin Timberlake, if you missed it check it out here:
