Chris Stapleton Debuts New Scorcher 'Second One to Know' at the 2017 ACM Awards

Chris Stapleton set the stage ablaze at the 2017 ACM Awards in Las Vegas on Sunday Night (Apr. 2) with the national TV debut of new song "Second One To Know."

The song, a particularly gritty, almost vicious-sounding rocker, sounds like a future hit, with Stapleton declaring on the chorus: "Don't put my love on your back burner/ Never let anything that hot get cold / And If you ever change your mind, wanna leave my love behind/ Just let me be the second one to know." And yes, Stapleton brought plenty of extra shredding to the stage as well.
