Luke Combs is hitting the road this fall!
The country superstar and North Carolina native took to social media on Friday morning (April 29) to unveil his Middle Of Somewhere Tour featuring direct support from Jordan Davis. The trek, which kicks off on September 2 in Bangor, ME, will also feature special guests Morgan Wade and Lainey Wilson on select dates.
“What’s up guys, Luke here, I’m super excited to announce the Middle Of Somewhere Tour, these tour dates are going to finish out the year for me,” the soon-to-be father said in the clip.
Combs went on to reveal that in an effort to keep ticket prices down, he’s setting the price at a pre-inflation rate with hopes to allow more fans the opportunity to see him on tour.
“I know that the price of everything has been going up these last couple years and there’s nothing I can do about that, but the one thing I could do is set the price of my tickets,” Combs shared. “So, what I wanted to do was keep the ticket prices the same as they were before the pandemic. I really, really hope you guys will come out and check us out. Can’t wait to see you on the road!”
Tickets for the Middle Of Somewhere Tour will be available for pre-sale beginning on Wednesday, May 4 at 4:00 p.m. local time through Ticketmaster Verified Fan, with general on-sale on Friday, May 6 at 10:00 a.m. local time.
Combs’ official fan club, The Bootleggers, will once again have early access to tickets through Ticketmaster Verified Fan pre-sale starting next Wednesday, May 4 at 9:00 a.m. local time.
Citi is the official card of the tour. Citi cardmembers will have access to pre-sale tickets beginning Thursday, May 5 at 10:00 a.m. local time until Thursday, May 5 at 10:00 p.m. local time through the Citi Entertainment program. For complete pre-sale details visit www.citientertainment.com.
Additionally, as the official wireless partner for the Middle of Somewhere Tour, Combs and T-Mobile are teaming up to bring T-Mobile customers exclusive access to lower bowl tickets at every U.S. tour stop, even at sold-out shows.
T-Mobile’s customers can snag their Reserved Tickets starting 30 days prior to each show at first-day prices – just another way T-Mobile thanks its customers simply for being customers. For more information, visit t-mobile.com/music.
The tour comes after his sold-out stadium shows at Denver’s Empower Field at Mile High and Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium (ranking among the fastest sell-outs in each venue’s history) as well as a stop at Seattle’s Lumen Field, which also achieved a massive opening weekend and is nearly sold-out. Altogether, Combs sold over 115,000 tickets in one day alone.
Combs will also headline several major festivals this year including Stagecoach, New Orleans JazzFest and BottleRock.
The reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year is gearing up to release his long-awaited third studio album, Growin’ Up.
Arriving on June 24 via River House Artists/Columbia Nashville, the project will feature 12 tracks and was produced by Combs alongside Chip Matthews and Jonathan Singleton.
“I’ve been working on this album on and off for two and a half years now. It was sort of a crazy process through what COVID brought, and what that meant for our touring life last year,” Combs shared in a press release. ”It made me have to put a pause on this album for a second, but I’m just really stoked that it’s finally coming out. Working with Chip Matthews and Jonathan Singleton as a producer has been really great and I think that the fans are going to love these songs. I’m just excited to get them out and see what they think.”
Combs’ upcoming third studio album will be the follow-up to his chart-topping, 2x Platinum 2019 album, What You See Is What You Get, and the 2020 deluxe edition of that dubbed, What You See Ain’t Always What You Get.
Additionally, Combs is expecting his first child with wife Nicole Hocking Combs in the coming weeks.
