Chris Stapleton on SNL

Phenomenal! When I was watching I thought his guitar player looked familiar & then it dawned on me. Holy shit! It's Sturgill Simpson! & he absolutely tore it up, especially on the first song. Sturgill wasn't announced on first song but they fixed that on the 2nd. Both songs in article on link. I don't think it's really country music but man does it rock.

Don’t watch SNL much anymore, but when I saw Stapleton tweeted about having Sturgill with him I made sure to DVR it. Two very good performances, I don’t think Stapleton has a single song that doesn’t sound better live.

It was fantastic.

I think Sturgill wasn't announced because it was supposed to be a surprise. Both songs sounded impeccable, and didn't come off as going through the motions but genuine performances.

It was fantastic.

Agree. And welcome back Mr Rabbit!

It was pretty killer. Stapleton's band is really, really tight. As good as I thought the production of A Room Vol 1 was, I felt that the songs on A Room Vol 2 came off a little more flat, but those 2 smoked live.

Great performances.

I'm still partial to Sturgill's solo performance of 'Call to Arms' on SNL. I made my 5 and 7 year old watch it and said, "Kids, listen. Look at that! THAT is Rock 'n Roll."
