This marks the second time that Chris Stapleton has been forced to postpone tour dates this year due to COVID. Shortly after his All-American Road Show tour kicked off in the spring, the singer postponed three dates due to a “positive case of Covid within the band & subsequent exposures.”

Stapleton’s tour dates are lined up through the end of October where the tour will wrap in Houston.
