CMA and ACM Award-winning musician, Luke Combs, is nominated for four awards at the2019 Billboard Music Awards: Top Country Artist, Top Country Male Artist, Top Country Album (This One’s For You) and Top Country Song (“She Got The Best Of Me”). The awards ceremony will broadcast live on NBC from the MGM Grand’s Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Wednesday, May 1 at 8:00pm ET/7:00pm CT.
These nominations continue an already monumental year for Combs, whose 2x Platinum single, “Beautiful Crazy,” remains #1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart for the sixth-straight week—a milestone not achieved since Thomas’s Rhett’s “Die A Happy Man” in 2016—and theMediabase/Country Aircheck chart for the fourth-straight week—the first single to do so in nearly nine years following Miranda Lambert’s “The House That Built Me” in 2010.
Combs also continues his historic Billboard run this week—topping all five country charts for a third non-consecutive week: Top Country Albums, Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay,Country Streaming Songs and Country Digital Song Sales (dated March 9, March 30 and April 6).
“Beautiful Crazy” is Combs’ fastest rising single to date (15 weeks) and makes Combs the first artist ever to send his first five singles to the top of Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. “Beautiful Crazy” is also the first country single shipped to radio already platinum-certified since Taylor Swift’s “Red” in 2013 and has more than 312 million on-demand streams. In celebration of these milestones, Combs recently released an acoustic version of the song. Listen/share HERE.
Already the 2019 ACM Award-winner for New Male Artist of the Year, Combs is also nominated for Male Artist of the Year at this year’s awards and will perform during the ceremony. The 2019 ACM Awards will broadcast live on CBS from MGM Grand’s Garden Arena in Las Vegas this Sunday, April 7 at 8:00pm ET/7:00pm CT.
In celebration of his landmark year, Combs’ “Beer Never Broke My Heart Tour” will extend through this fall including newly confirmed dates at Rogers, AR’s Walmart AMP, Portland, OR’s Moda Center, Philadelphia, PA’s Wells Fargo Arena and Nashville, TN’s Bridgestone Arena. Special guests throughout the tour include Morgan Wallen, The Cadillac Three and Jameson Rodgers. Tickets for these shows go on-sale this Friday, April 5 at 10:00am local time. See below for complete tour details.
These achievements add to an already monumental year for Combs, whose breakthrough debut album This One’s For You is now certified RIAA double Platinum. Since it’s release June 2, 2017, the album has spent a total of 30 non-consecutive weeks at #1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart—the longest reign for a solo male artist in over 25 years. The album also spent 16 weeks at #1 in 2018—making it the highest selling country album last year with 1.1 million equivalent album units sold and the only country album to surpass 1 million album units. It’s also the most-streamed country album of 2019 so far. Additionally, Combs was recently named Country Artist of the Year at the 2019 iHeartRadio Music Awards, New Artist of the Year at the 52nd Annual CMA Awards, was nominated for Best New Artist at the 61st GRAMMY Awards and was the recipient of a CMA Triple Play Award for writing three #1 songs in a 12 month period.
