Chris Stapleton On Road To Recovery Following Finger Injury

June 2, 2017/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Chris Stapleton

Chris Stapleton posted a message to fans updating them on his condition and thanking them for their support and understanding following the postponement of three weeks worth of dates on his All-American Road Show Tour. The singer explains he is recovering from a broken bone and detached tendon in his right index finger, which will require physical therapy.

On his Facebook page, Stapleton writes: “I want to thank you for all of the positive thoughts and kind words you have shared over the last few days. The doctor is hopeful that with some physical therapy I will be playing guitar again soon. Right now, I can’t possibly give you guys the show you deserve. I always want to give you my very best. There is little in this world that I enjoy more than getting to make music with all of you night after night. Thank you for the privilege. Your support and understanding through all of this lets me know now, more than ever, I have the best fans in the world.”

Following the injury Stapleton was forced to postpone a string of shows from June 1-June 17, and cancel a CMA Music Fest appearance on June 11.
