Justin is a Memphis boy and a hugely talented musician. He’s more of an R&B singer but has that country background. They brought down the house that night and those two songs were perfect together. I agree with Ryan’s rant! The CMA’s often have better performances than the Grammys. Just straight up good musicianship in the country world!
Chris Stapleton could sing the phonebook and it would be Amazing!!
Chris was real nervous about performing Tennessee Whiskey alone when his wife contacted Justin, who was a close friend with Justin. When they informed CMA they doubled the time allotted and made this the opening number. There is so much energy that was in part to Justin's band. Can you imagine how the next number felt about following this?
The next was Florida Georgia Line and they sounded awful in comparison. 😂
Chris was never nervous about performing alone. Internet myth. He was was very well known & admired in the Nashville music community but his 1st recordings hadn't caught on for some reason so he asked Justin to do him this favor. It worked!
Chris was born and raised In Kentucky. He also covered Metallica’s Nothing Else Matters. It was amazing.
Chris and TJ vocally complemented each other but as the performance goes on the vocals continuously goes up notch by notch.
1 small thing - Morgane is pronounced Morgan. Chris is absolutely the truth. It's just stand & deliver. As many have said, he is his own genre. You will hear blues, soul, rock, gospel, Bluegrass, & country (including outlaw). Watch performances with just him & his guitar: "Cry", "Barely Alive" & "Your Man" Live at the Bing Lounge, "Whiskey & You" on Charlie Rose. Morgane sings perfect harmony & JT Cure on & Derek Mixon on drums behind him are the basic, very talented band. You can't go wrong listening to any of it.
Thats called a performance . Talent not overdone shock theatrics and crotch grabbing like so many need to do these days .
I saw this performance live, one of the two top performances I have watched live.
Your Thought’s On Reaction Channels!! YESSSSSSS Why Im Glad I Found Y’all!!!!!!
Justin is from *NSYNC! Chris’s wife is singing with them!!
Hello from Mexico. I love this song ❤️
You should listen to song "Blow" Ed Sherran, Chris Stapleton, AND Bruno Mars!!! Only watch video that has the actual female band members - lyric video doesn't do it!!! Warning: it will blow your mind, LOL.
FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE ♥️ LOVE THIS SONG ‼️‼️‼️♥️
Only stumbled on your reaction now...yes I'm late... I must say, love Ryan's direct take on things.
Tennessee Whiskey - Country Music Lyrics with a Blues Riff... This tends to be a staple of Chris Stapleton's style of "Outlaw Country".
If you like acapella, you should check out Home Free. Totally acapella and amazing x
@WelpHereWeAreOnCZcams good reaction. Just sub’d. Chris is blues,soul,R&B,lil rock, Outlaw Country. He’s under ‘Country’ umbrella but he’s in his own genre!!!! Please react to his performance at “2021 CMA Awards “Cold” it’s amazing! He won CMA’s & Grammys for it. He’s a great singer,guitar player & writes his own songs unless he sings a cover. Btw lil known fact, Chris & Justin are next door neighbors a few miles outside of Nashville Tennessee. They’ve been friends for years.
I think that they are neighbours and have collaborated for years. Talent likes to work with talent. Stapleton is a music savant. He writes well and is a great arranger. Timberlake is one of the very good musicians out there and works well with Chris and Morgana. But they are not simply country. The broad influences include gospel, soul, rock, Outlaw country and Southern Rock. Someone jokingly called Chris the best young black musician out there because he was truer to the tradition and a better singer than most of the supposed stars.
Agreed… Hate Pop Music and Rap Music… All about the game, hating on others and money… Just sing a great song and it will be remembered forever:)
There also next-door neighbors.
They are next door neighbors
Out of the boyband "phase"?? 😂
Justin’s wife
Would have loved to finish this reaction, but the soap box rant from Ryan is a turn off.
Ryan if you think Sam Smith was bad at the Grammy's, one month later was the Brit Awards and he was an absolute embarrassment, what he (they/them) was wearing on the red carpet and the performance was laughable/cringey, his singing is not the sort of thing I like, I was going to say I don't like Wingey/Whiney singers like Billie Eilish then I noticed you are reacting to her, Oh well,, Nathan you're not missing anything by not knowing him.
Why would you both think that I would listen to A minute of word shit from you both. I'm here for Cris and Justen .
Most boring reaction, ever
Awesome ! Thank you for watching !
