À propos de cet audio
Luke Combs is making headlines this week with some truly historic news and just as much mystery. Multiple major outlets like Country Thang Daily are reporting that Luke Combs has officially broken Garth Brooks’s long-standing record to become the highest-selling country artist of all time. According to the RIAA, Combs now boasts a staggering 168 million certified units from sales and streams, finally surpassing Garth Brooks’s 162.5 million. What makes this more impactful for the Luke Combs biography story is he’s achieved this in less than one decade, going from uploading YouTube covers to selling out stadiums worldwide. Combs responded with humility saying he couldn’t have done it without the fans and insisted the achievement belongs to them as much as him. He pointed out that his first gold plaque for “Hurricane” came only eight years ago and now, with four Diamond-certified singles, “Beautiful Crazy,” “When It Rains It Pours,” “Hurricane,” and “She Got the Best of Me,” he’s rewriting country music history.
New music arrived October 3rd with a three-song EP titled The Prequel, which features “My Kinda Saturday Night,” “15 Minutes,” and “Days Like These.” The fan buzz is relentless and his single “Back in the Saddle” is climbing the Billboard Country Airplay charts. Simultaneously, “Ain’t No Love in Oklahoma” notched his nineteenth number-one song, proving his momentum is just unstoppable. He’s nominated for three CMA Awards this November, including Entertainer of the Year. Festival bookings are heating up as well; Combs is set to headline Austin City Limits, and he recently became the first country artist to headline both Lollapalooza and Bonnaroo.
Big personal news rounds out the last few weeks. Luke and his wife Nicole have announced they’re expecting their third child. The couple revealed this with a heartwarming social media video that included their sons Tex and Beau. Luke says that while awards are nice, nothing compares to being a dad.
Now, for the headline grabbing tease that has the country world buzzing. On October 5th, Combs posted a cryptic video teasing an enormous announcement scheduled for Thursday, October 9th at 9am EST. The video showcased footage from his concerts and referenced how each show and crowd keeps getting bigger. In an intriguing twist, Dierks Bentley and Thomas Rhett posted videos covering Combs songs with the same date—October 9th—and the speculation is mounting about a massive new tour, possibly including stadiums even larger than NFL venues. Thomas Rhett’s video featured him in an England FC jersey, fueling rumors of a major Wembley Stadium reveal. Meanwhile, international clues emerged from fan accounts suggesting a world tour spanning the United States, Canada, and Europe in 2026. Irish legends The Script and country acts like Ty Myers also joined the tease, suggesting Combs is assembling a crew of superstar openers. Even Slane Castle in Ireland hinted a possible mega concert.
With the announcement coming tomorrow morning, fans everywhere are waiting with bated breath. One thing’s certain: Luke Combs is at the center of country music’s biggest moments right now, rewriting both the charts and his own biography.
