High tenor country singers are always popular. I think because they are more rare and if they are also really good AND making pop songs, they'll make mucho money. AND I forgot to add, if they throw in "soul" tones and licks. That's money in the bank. Vince Gill... tenor, great singer, but no "soul". Ricky Skaggs... tenor, great singer for bluegrass but... no "soul" = no uh... AA audience. This Stapelton guy is getting a wider appeal because of the soulful tone and style. Mega $ in the US.
