Chris Stapleton Electrifies Albany With Soulful Summer Kickoff
Let me tell you about a night that felt like magic in Albany—Chris Stapleton's All-American Road Show rolled into town on June 20, 2025, and honestly, it was everything fans hoped for and more. The show took place at the MVP Arena, and with the summer solstice marking the longest day of the year, it couldn’t have been a more fitting occasion for this kind of unforgettable musical experience.

From the moment Chris stepped onto the stage and opened with "Bad As I Used To Be" , the crowd was locked in. You could feel it—this wasn’t just another concert. It was an emotional ride, with highs driven by his gritty, powerhouse vocals and lows that tugged right at the heartstrings. He transitioned effortlessly between rock-heavy tracks like "White Horse" and tender ballads such as "What Are You Listening To" , bringing a depth and soul that few performers can replicate live.
The entire MVP Arena was buzzing. Thousands of fans swayed, sang, and cheered through every note, and Chris had them wrapped around his finger. His presence on stage was commanding, yet humble—exactly what you'd expect from someone who’s earned his place as one of country music's modern legends.
And let’s not forget about Maggie Rose, who opened the night. Her return to Albany—her first time back since 2017 when she opened for Tim McGraw and Faith Hill—was a welcome treat. Her soulful energy set the perfect tone for what was to come. She’s not just an opener; she’s a powerhouse in her own right.
By the end of the show, as Stapleton returned for the encore, you could feel the collective wish in the crowd that it wouldn’t end. People didn’t just come to hear hits; they came to feel them—and that’s exactly what happened. It was one of those concerts where the music stays with you long after you’ve left the venue.
For those who want to relive the night or missed it entirely, Claude Sawyer captured the essence in a beautiful photo gallery. Every shot tells part of the story—one of passion, performance, and connection.
In short, Chris Stapleton gave Albany a show for the books, and for many of us, it was the perfect way to kick off summer 2025.
