Chris Stapleton is a diamond...
Elle King loves being country...

Chris Stapleton's cover of "Tennessee Whiskey" has been certified Diamond, marking sales and streams of over 10 million units. 
Originally recorded by David Allan Coe and then George Jones, Chris's version is from his popular album Traveller, and grew in popularity after he performed it with Justin Timberlake on the 2015 CMA Awards.

Elle King has already collaborated with Dierks Bentley on "Different for Girls" and now Miranda Lambert on "Drunk (And I Don't Want to Go Home)," but she's happy to wait and see what comes next.
She said, "Whatever my journey through country so far has been, it's kinda been like, 'Oh wait, that's a crazy idea, who thought of that, that would awesome!' And it's just been really, really fun. So, I'm kinda going into it blind seeing what rhinestones stick and how long my fringe can get."
Elle goes back on the road with Chris Stapleton next year.
