Country superstar Luke Combs is nominated for Best Country Solo Performance at the 66th Annual GRAMMY Awards for his version of Tracy Chapman's GRAMMY-winning song, "Fast Car" which recently earned him "Single of the Year" at 57th CMA Awards.
The awards ceremony will be broadcast live on CBS from Los Angeles' Crypto.com Arena Sunday, February 4 at 8:00pm ET.

The nomination is just the latest milestone Combs has achieved with "Fast Car," as it also won Single of the Year at the 57th Annual CMA Awards earlier this week. Additionally, it spent five-consecutive weeks atop Billboard's Country Airplay chart and reached #1 on the Hot AC chart, the first song by a male solo artist to ever top both the Hot AC and Country charts. The 2x Platinum single, which has garnered over 700 million global streams to date, has also spent eighteen weeks in the top 5 of Billboard's all-genre Hot 100 chart, eight of which were spent at #2.
Further adding to his triumphant career, Combs will return to the road next year with his "Growin' Up and Gettin' Old" U.S. stadium tour, which sold over a million tickets in the first weekend on-sale, with 16 of the 25 dates also selling out immediately.
Sold-out shows include back-to-back nights at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium, East Rutherford's MetLife Stadium, Santa Clara's Levi's® Stadium, Milwaukee's American Family Field, Buffalo's Highmark Stadium and Cincinnati's Paycor Stadium among others. Combs continues to break records with the 2024 dates, becoming the highest-selling country artist and the first ever to play back-to-back shows at Los Angeles' SoFi Stadium, the highest-selling male country artist at Santa Clara's Levi's® Stadium and Glendale's State Farm Stadium and the fastest-selling two-day run in the region of Cincinnati's Paycor Stadium.

The upcoming performances celebrate Combs acclaimed new album, Gettin' Old—a companion to his acclaimed 2022 record, Growin' Up—which was released earlier this spring via River House Artists/Columbia Nashville (stream/purchase here). Receiving critical attention, The New York Times praises, "…grounded in country, complete with fiddle fills, but it's also pointed toward a wide pop audience" while Billboard proclaims, "his electrifying-yet-earthy voice soundtracking this time in his life as a husband, father and entertainer at the top of his game" and American Songwriter declares, "He's a rock star at this point." Produced by Combs, Chip Matthews and Jonathan Singleton, Gettin' Old is Combs' fourth full-length album following Growin' Up, 2019's What You See is What You Get and This One's For You.
A Grand Ole Opry-member and 9x CMA, 3x ACM, 3x Billboard Music Award-winner, Combs has also partnered with Opry Entertainment Group to open a massive multi-level entertainment complex in downtown Nashville, expected to open summer 2024.
