Stapleton has enjoyed a great run with "Traveller." The former lead singer of The SteelDrivers initially debuted in second on the Billboard Country Albums chart with more than 27,000 albums sold, making it one of the best-selling first weeks by a debut country artist in 2015.
Following a historic turn on the 49th Annual CMA Awards - where Stapleton became the first artist to win Album of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year and New Artist of the Year at the same awards - "Traveller" became the first album to re-enter the Billboard 200 all-genre album chart at number one where is stayed for two straight weeks. The album went on to win multiple Grammy and ACM Awards and was the number 1 selling country album of 2016 and the fourth-highest selling album of 2016 across all genres. The album topped the country charts for many weeks.
