Stapleton recently talked with CBS Mornings and revealed an album he heard as a young man, which changed him musically. That album was Tom Petty’s Wildflowers, released in November 1994.
Chris said, “I have this theory that people discover what is their favorite thing between the ages of like 16 and 24. Somewhere in there, it kind of shapes their opinions of music and things like that. That was that record for me.”
When asked what he heard in it, Stapleton said there were “no skips,” which was a new experience for him at that moment, “It’s kind of my barometer; this is the goal.”
Chris went on to say that Tom could always write things so lyrically, so simply but in ways that were “so impactful” and in ways that got you to the “meat of what you wanted it to be.” He noted that he always felt like that was the goal in songwriting: “less words mean more.” To find the things that people could “attach themselves to” or “find themselves in.”
Stapleton will join Lainey Wilson, George Strait, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Wynonna Judd, and Dierks Bentley to pay tribute to Tom Petty. The new album, dubbed Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration of Tom Petty, is slated for release later this year.
