Before He Was Breaking Records, Luke Combs Was Covering Eric Church’s “Talladega” In Bars

To the time machine we go.

The momentum we’re seeing from Luke Combs is unprecedented, and there are zero signs of him slowing down.

From his Opry induction, to breaking tons of records, Combs is country music’s newest mega-star, and will undoubtedly be selling out football arenas very, very, soon. He’s a man of the people, has an incredible beer shotgun time, and can’t write a bad song – it’s just not in his DNA.

While on YouTube, I stumbled across a video I hadn’t seen in a quick minute – Combs covering Eric Church’s hit “Talladega” at the Grey Eagle in North Carolina. This video is just about four years old, but showcases Luke and his uncanny ability to hold the crowd in his hand, no matter the size.

Oh yeah, don’t forget, that new album may be here sooner than you think…
