Date Night At Super Bowl LVIII
Combs shared a snapshot of their time at the Super Bowl on Instagram stories with the caption, “Big game hang with @nicolejcombs.” In the photo, Combs is seen lovingly staring at his wife, and Nicole is throwing out a peace sign. For her big game attire, Nicole rocked knee-high red and black snakeskin boots with a black outfit, and Combs donned jeans, a camo shirt, and boots.
Several Country Stars Are At The Big Game
The “Where The Wild Things Are” singer isn’t the only country artist at the big game. Lainey Wilson, HARDY, Maren Morris, Russell Dickerson, and more have been spotted in the stands. Additionally, Country Music Hall of Famer Reba McEntire is also on hand as she performed a standout rendition of the national anthem before kick-off.
Combs Performed In Las Vegas Before The Super Bowl
Luke Combs was in town ahead of the Super Bowl to headline the BetMGM Big Game Bash concert. The event took place at The Chelsea, 40,000-square-foot concert and event venue at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas Saturday, February 10. Top entertainers such as Olivia Rodrigo, Louis Tomlinson, Kehlani and Pete Davidson have previously performed at the event.
The North Carolina native documented his Las Vegas concert with a gallery of photos from the show. By the looks of it, he welcomed guests such as Post Malone and Peyton Manning to the concert.
Recently Performed At The GRAMMYs
Combs’ Super Bowl appearance comes just one week after he made headlines at the GRAMMY Awards where he fulfilled a lifelong dream of performing alongside one of his musical heroes, Tracy Chapman. The collaborative performance of “Fast Car” was a highlight of the GRAMMYs.
Following the history-making performance, Combs reflected on the moment in a heartfelt Instagram post.
“What an unreal Grammy week to say the least. There were so many laughs, tears, hugs, and cheers that it almost doesn’t seem real. From the hotel hangs and rehearsals, to the dinners and post show pizza, the vibes were HIGH,” he wrote. “I want to thank my whole team for working tirelessly to make this happen and my wife for always being by my side, I love you.”
Of the performance, Combs admitted, “It’s still hard to process how amazing it really was to be up there on that stage.”
He went on to call it a “defining moment” of his career before showcasing his gratitude toward Chapman.
“Tracy, I want to send my sincerest thanks to you for allowing me to be a part of your moment. Thank you for the impact you have had on my musical journey, and the musical journeys of countless other singers, songwriters, musicians, and fans alike. I hope you felt how much you mean to the world that night. We were all in awe of you up there and I was just the guy lucky enough to have the best seat in the house.”
2024 Tour
The country superstar will soon begin preparing for the launch of his highly anticipated 2024 stadium tour. Launching on April 12, the upcoming trek will find Combs playing back-to-back nights at a number of stadiums across the U.S., including New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium, Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium, Jacksonville’s EverBank Stadium, Santa Clara’s Levi’s® Stadium, Houston’s NRG Stadium, and Phoenix’s State Farm Stadium.
The Friday night shows include special guests Cody Jinks, The Avett Brothers, Charles Wesley Godwin, Hailey Whitters, and The Wilder Blue, while the Saturday shows will feature Jordan Davis, Mitchell Tenpenny, Drew Parker, and Colby Acuff.
“We got an opportunity to do two shows in some U.S. markets on the World Tour, but when I found out we were going to be able to do two shows for most all of the cities on the 2024 tour, I decided I wanted each show to have their own unique set up of openers, as well as my own unique setlist. I thought this would give people an opportunity to come to both nights if they want, but see two completely different shows,” the two-time CMA Entertainer of the Year previously shared in a statement.
