After winning three Grammys on Jan. 28 for Best Country Album (From A Room: Vol. 1), Best Country Song (“Broken Halo”) and Best Country Solo Performance (“Either Way”), Chris Stapleton is feeling a “Grammy Bump” on all fronts

The No. 1, 2 and 3 spots on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart this week belong to Chris’ From A Room: Vol. 2, Traveller and From A Room: Vol. 1, respectively.

Chris is the first artist to accomplish the top trifecta since Garth Brooks’ in 1992. According to Billboard, the only other artist to accomplish the feat was Charlie “The Silver Fox” Rich in 1974.

According to Nielsen Music, From A Room: Vol. 2 moved 20,000 equivalent album units in the week ending Feb. 1, while Traveller sold 17,000 and From A Room: Vol. 1 sold 16,000.
