When it rains, it pours, and it's downright torrential with the news that country singer-songwriter Luke Combs is set to become the first country artist to headline a full stadium tour Down Under. Playing six huge shows across Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, this will be the fourth headline Australian tour for the country music star.
Hailing from North Carolina, Combs began singing in vocal groups before hitting the local gig circuit. In 2014, he headed to Nashville to pursue a music career, where his single ‘Hurricane’ earned him a contract with River House/Columbia Nashville. Ever since, Combs’ country tunes have earned him Billboard Music Awards’ Top Country Artist, seven Grammy nominations, four Academy of Country Music Awards and two iHeart Radio Music Awards, with his latest album Father and Sons setting the stage for his next big tour. Here’s everything you need to know about getting tickets in Australia.
