BEER NEVER BROKE MY HEART TOUR SOLD OUT

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Luke Combs was awarded Country Artist of the Year at last night’s iHeartRadio Music Awards.

The honor adds to an already impressive few days 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 27 non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Country Albums chart, including 16 weeks 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 recently became the second artist ever to top all five Billboard Country charts: Top Country Albums, Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay, Country Streaming Songs and Country Digital Song Sales (all dated March 9).

The success comes on the heels of Combs’ latest single, “Beautiful Crazy,” which is No. 1 on Mediabase/Country Aircheck this week and remains No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay, Hot Country Songs and Country Streaming Songs charts for the second straight week. This is his fastest rising single to date (15 weeks) and makes Combs the first artist ever to send his first five singles to the top ofBillboard’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 281 million on-demand streams. In celebration of these milestones, Combs recently released an acoustic version of the song. Listen/shareHERE.

Combs is nominated for two 2019 ACM Awards (Male Artist of the Year and New Male Artist of the Year), won New Artist of the Year at “The 52nd Annual CMA Awards,” was nominated for Best New Artist at the 61st GRAMMY Awards and who recently won a CMA Triple Play Award for writing three No. 1 songs in a 12-month period.
