Megan Moroney is tippin’ her cap to Chris Stapleton.
Today, she released a cover of his incredibly underrated heater “What Are You Listening To?” as an Amazon exclusive, which was written by Chris with Lee Thomas Miller.
He actually released the song as his debut single to country radio back in 2013 after signing with Mercury Nashville, and it eventually peaked at #46 on the U.S. Billboard Country Airplay chart that same year.
After the singe fizzled out on the country charts, Chris trashed the album that song was supposed to be on and got to work on his now-legendary record, Traveller. I think we at least deserve to hear that unnamed record one day, too, though.
Chris put out Traveller in May of 2015, and in November of 2015, he took the country music world by storm when he appeared on CMA Awards with Justin Timberlake to sing “Tennessee Whiskey”. The rest, as they say, is history.
It’s fun to hear this song from a female voice and perspective, and you you can hear a snippet of Megan’s cover below.
Of course if you have an Amazon account, you can listen to the full thing over there as well:
