Luke Combs has been a focal point for this trend since the start of his career. But it’s just the latest sign that country music continues to trend more country, and more quality. But it’s so easy and comfortable just to slide into the sack with them like a bad habit, even though you know the next morning you’re going to be kicking yourself, because you know there’s no future there. Maybe the guy had no future and still living with his parents into his 30s. Maybe the girl was bat shit crazy and too into cats. Knock offs of Florida Georgia Line’s “Cruise” and Sam Hunt’s “Body Like a Backroad” are what we’re used to hitting the airwaves at about this time, and here Luke Combs is wanting us to think and feel and stuff. But it will be from Luke Combs, and so it will be quite a big deal, and perhaps a release to finally give Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous the boot at #1.Īhead of the album, Luke Combs has released “Tomorrow Me,” and again, at a time when summer anthems that are supposed to be playing in the background when you make dumb decisions to like jousting on jet skis. It won’t be a double, or a triple with cheese like we’ve been used to from the big names in country recently. Earlier this week, Luke Combs let it be known that his newest album called Growin’ Up would be released on June 24th. It really underscores that it’s a new era in country music. And rising to meet the moment, here is one of country music’s biggest male stars releasing a mid-tempo song underpinned with steel guitar about regretting post-breakup sex. That means the chrome on the truck is polished, the beer is iced down, the balls have been manscaped, quaffed, slathered with conditioner and are ready for action, and everyone is heading to their local body of water, blasting bad country music, because that’s America. Spring is here, and summer is just around the corner.
