Chris Stapleton has quickly become one of the top must-see artists in country music, and his ticket sales prove it. After almost all his upcoming summer tour dates sold out nearly instantly, he’s added a few more shows in May, June and September to keep up with the demand.

Stapleton will be bringing along Aubrie Sellers for the new dates, which include stops in New Orleans, Charlotte, Orange Beach and Philadelphia.

The artist is already slated to appear at the 2016 ACM Awards, where he is nominated for several awards including Album of the Year for his smash record Traveller, Male Vocalist of the Year, Song of the Year and New Male Vocalist, for which he has already been announced as the winner. Earlier this month, Stapleton performed to packed crowds at Europe’s C2C Festival and will head out on the road May 12 for his tour. Check out all the newly added tour dates below. He’ll also be stopping by Nashville’s CMA Fest this summer.

Stapleton has been a fixture in the country biz for years, but saw his career skyrocket after his performance with Justin Timberlake at last year’s CMA Awards, where he also took home three awards, including Album of the Year. He went on to take home two Grammys this year, as well. His latest single, “Fire Away,” shines a spotlight on suicide awareness in its poignant music video, released in late February.
