(UMG Nashville) Chris Stapleton's highly anticipated new album, Higher, will be released November 10 on Mercury Nashville. In advance of the release, the album's first single, "White Horse," written by Stapleton and Dan Wilson, is out today.

Produced by Dave Cobb, Morgane Stapleton, and Stapleton, Higher was recorded at Nashville's RCA Studio A. Across its 14 songs, Stapleton showcases his supernatural voice and musical versatility with songs that span genres and defy easy categorization. Alongside Stapleton (vocals, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, slide electric guitar), the album features Cobb (acoustic guitar, eclectic guitar), J.T. Cure (bass), Paul Franklin (pedal steel), Derek Mixon (drums), Morgane (background vocals, synthesizer, tambourine), and Lee Pardini (organ, piano).

Known for his electric live performances, the 8x Grammy, 15x CMA and 15x ACM Award-winner is currently in the midst of his extensive "All-American Road Show" tour and joins George Strait for select stadium shows this summer including two shows next Friday and Saturday at Nashville's Nissan Stadium.
