“If anybody has what it takes to build a big, broad, generation-spanning audience, it’s Combs.” – NPR MUSIC
River House Artists / Columbia Nashville singer/songwriter Luke Combs releases his highly-anticipated debut album This One’s For You today, June 2. The album, which Combs co-wrote all twelve tracks on, produced the North Carolina native’s PLATINUM-certified two-week No. 1 hit single, “Hurricane”- the first for a debut solo country male artist in 9 years – and debuts today at No. 1 atop the iTunes Country Albums chart and No. 2 on iTunes Overall Albums Chart. Remarking on the album, NPR Music heralds Combs for “demonstrating current pop fluency and a connection with the sturdy contributions of previous generations of country performers” and Entertainment Weekly calls This One’s For You a “dynamic debut album.” Listen to This One’s For You HERE.
For the release of This One’s For You, Combs kicks off a week of back-to-back appearances and special performances for fans in New York City where he will make his national TV debut on NBC’s Today (Monday, June 5) performing in both the 8am and 10am hours.
On Wednesday June 7, Combs teams with Rolling Stone Country for “Luke Combs: Live & Loud from Nashville”, an intimate performance & conversation live stream from Aurora Nashville. The livestream concert event will be broadcast globally across Rolling Stone and Rolling Stone Country digital platforms at 12:00p CT / 1:00p ET. Fans can catch Combs on the CMT Music Awards later that evening where he is nominated for BREAKTHROUGH VIDEO OF THE YEAR for his first-ever music video for “Hurricane” which was shot in his home state of North Carolina and has garnered over 33 million views.
True to form as the artist who “earned his newfound success by tirelessly delivering the goods on the road” (Rolling Stone), Combs continues his whirlwind release week taking his trademark rowdy live shows on the road for fans with performances at the 2017 Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in Manchester (June 8), the Carolina Country Music Fest in Myrtle Beach (June 9) and the 2017 CMA Music Festival (June 10 & 11.)
In addition to his performances, fans can catch Combs alongside fellow country peers including Sam Hunt, Margo Price, Shooter Jennings and more for Noisey’s feature documentary series “Under The Influence: How Outlaw Country Keeps The Renegade Independent Spirit Alive”, out today on Noisey.com.
Forecast as the “artist to watch in 2017”, Combs stormed into the Country music format earlier this year being selected by iHeart Media’s Bobby Bones for his “Class Of 2017”, featured in Billboard’s 2017 Predictions Issue as one of four all-genre artists anticipated to breakthrough this year and topped “Watch Lists” curated by Huffington Post (Top 10 Country Artists To Watch In 2017), Pandora (Artists To Watch in 2017) and Rolling Stone (2017 Country Music Preview: Most Anticipated Albums, Tours, Festivals).
