Luke Combs is set to release his highly anticipated new album WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET on November 8 via River House Artists, Columbia Nashville and Sony Music Entertainment Australia – available for pre-order now. Each pre-order includes an instant download of Combs’ new track, ‘1, 2 Many’ featuring Brooks & Dunn, as well as the five tracks previously released as part Combs’ THE PREQUEL EP. Also unveiled today – is the album cover art – which is a photo that was taken by David Bergman and then painted by Nashville-based artist Rob Hendon.
The new album adds to an already monumental year for Combs, who is nominated for three awards at the 2019 CMA Awards: Male Vocalist of the Year, Song of the Year (‘Beautiful Crazy’) and Musical Event of the Year (‘Brand New Man’ with Brooks & Dunn).
Produced by Scott Moffatt, WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET features 17 songs including the five tracks previously released via Combs’ THE PREQUEL EP earlier this year. The EP debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart with all five tracks charting on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs Top 25—a feat not accomplished by any artist in 60 years since Johnny Cash in 1959. The release also propelled Combs to the largest streaming week ever for a country artist with 73 million on-demand streams (week ending June 13). Additionally, THE PREQUEL’S lead single, ‘Beer Never Broke My Heart’ recently reached No. 1 on both Billboard’s Country Airplay and the Australian Country Airplay Chart. This is Combs’ sixth consecutive No. 1—a first on the Billboard Country Airplay chart—and his fastest rising single to date (13 weeks).
Moreover, Combs’ new single ‘Even Though I’m Leaving’ was recently shipped to country radio and continues to receive widespread critical acclaim. Of the song, The New York Times declares, “Luke Combs has one of the most emotionally tactile voices in contemporary country music…even at his most tender, Combs is firm, stepping into the rawness of the feeling, not away from it.” Watch/share the official music video HERE.
WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET is the follow up to the ACM, CMA, CMT and Billboard Music Award-winning artist’s breakthrough double PLATINUM debut, THIS ONE’S FOR YOU, which debuted at #1 on the ARIA Country Chart – and it has since spent 117 weeks in the ARIA Country Chart, currently perched in #1 position. In addition, THIS ONE’S FOR YOU is currently #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart for the 47th non-consecutive week —the longest reign ever for a male artist and second longest for an artist overall following Shania Twain’s Come On Over in 1997 (50 weeks). THIS ONE’S FOR YOU is also the most-streamed country album of 2019 so far – a true testament to Luke’s voice and artistry in country music.
