2. How Much Does Chris Stapleton Make from His Studio Albums?

Stapleton's debut album, Traveller, sold over 6 million copies in the U.S., while his three subsequent albums, From A Room: Volume 1, From A Room: Volume 2 and Starting Over have each been certified platinum.

According to ASCAP, artist royalties from pure album sales typically range between 10%-25%, so let's just say that Stapleton has likely made a pretty penny from these sales. And that doesn't even include streaming numbers. Currently, Stapleton has over 13 million monthly listeners on Spotify, with his top song having over 600 million spins. According to USA Today, artists make around $0.003 - $0.005 per stream on average, which again, doesn't start out as a lot, but has surely added up for Stapleton.

According to All Star Bio, Morgane's net worth is estimated to be around $3 million. So, as a married couple, we can likely assume that Chris and Morgane's funds are being combined as well.

In 2016, he told People, “I don’t give my wife any credit, she’s earned every bit of it. She’s the sounding board for everything. She’s a highly intuitive, wonderfully decisive and creative person. As a joke I say that she has great taste in everything but men.”

Not too shabby, Chris.
