From a room, volume 2

"Like its predecessor from earlier this year, volume two of Chris Stapleton's From A Room is a brew of country, folk, blues and Southern rock and soul, recorded at Nashville's vintage RCA Studio A with producer Dave Cobb".

"The move to release Stapleton's 18 songs over two volumes and seven months is exceptionally effective as consumers continue driving towards a single-listening mindset. It allows the first volume's songs room to breathe and sink into our memories and playlists just long enough before getting hit with Volume 2. With a delayed look at Volume 2's songs, any repeated themes or forms feel fresh and less like filler ... It's Stapleton's grasp on the constant joys of life despite the troubles that makes his music essential and enduring".

"It's a collection of moments, just like From A Room: Volume 1, but that's the charm of From A Room: Volume 2. Stapleton isn't crafting a major statement; he's knocking out a bunch of songs that work on their own terms -- and when the two records are combined, it's clear he's the lifer he intends to be".
