Luke Combs’ Debut Album For His Fans: This One’s For You
A fast rising country star from Asheville, North Carolina, Luke Combs hit the country airwaves two years ago with his smash single, Hurricane, giving fans a taste of his style and what we could expect more in his music. Now the singer/songwriter has finally released his debut album on June 2nd, This One’s For You.
The album starts out with a song that is a great pure country sounding song, Out There.
