“American Idol’s Will Moseley Nailed This Chris Stapleton Cover”

Will Moseley just released a cover of Chris Stapleton’s Whiskey And You, rekindling memories of why fans adored him on American Idol.

Since finishing as the runner-up on American Idol, Will has smoothly transitioned into a flourishing country music career. In the weeks following the May 19th finale, he released a successful single and even opened for Zac Brown. Keeping the momentum going, Will has been busy recording and sharing both original songs and covers on his social media channels.

His latest offering is an acoustic rendition of Chris Stapleton’s 2015 hit. This is not the first time Will has chosen to cover Chris’ songs, as both artists share a similarly raspy, southern vocal style that Will consistently masters. This cover is no exception.

Will Moseley delivers Chris Stapleton’s heartbreaking lyrics with profound soul and flawless execution. This performance is a powerful reminder to thousands of fans of why they supported him on American Idol.

“HE WAS MY CHOICE FROM DAY 1 ON AMERICAN IDOL,” one fan exclaimed in the comments. “THAT VOICE, INCREDIBLY AMAZINGLY AMAZING!! HE DAMN SURE IS GOING PLATINUM, JUST WATCH!!”

“The tone, the rasp, the timing, the delivery, the vibe, the lyrics,” another fan wrote. “Awesome.”

“Your singing voice gives me goosebumps… In a good way!! Lol,” another praised.

“Amazing cover,” commented another admirer. “You knocked this out of the park.”
