Luke Combs Showcases ‘Hurricane,’ ‘The Grand Tour’ at ‘Opry 100’
The event, which aired on NBC, honored the Grand Ole Opry’s 100th anniversary
Luke Combs took the stage at Opry 100: A Live Celebration last night, performing two songs during the Nashville event.
The musician offered a moving rendition of his debut single “Hurricane,” explaining he previously played the track during his Grand Ole Opry debut almost nine years ago. Combs noted, “I’m so glad to be here to celebrate the Opry’s big night.”
The country star also performed the George Jones’ 1974 classic “The Grand Tour.”
Combs released “Hurricane” in 2016 and included it on his debut LP, This One’s for You. It saw massive success on the charts, skyrocketing Combs to immediate fame in the country landscape. “I just love writing songs and singing them,” Combs told Rolling Stone at the time. “People seem to enjoy them, and that’s all you can really ask for. I didn’t get into it to try to be a celebrity or whatever.”
He added, “I’ve always been a super regular guy. I think there’s kind of a comfortability with me onstage – and I think my cool factor is not having one. I’m not extra cool or extra different. I’m an honest dude, not trying to be anything other than who I am.”
Most recently, Combs released Fathers & Sons, his fifth studio album. Last year, he was nominated for the Grammy for Best Country Solo Performance for his 2023 rendition of Tracy Chapman’s hit song “Fast Car.” Combs is set to play a series of festivals this spring and summer, including Stagecoach, Boston Calling, and Bonnaroo.
