How Luke Combs Is Letting Fans Curate His New Album

Luke Combs is letting his fans be a part of his next album in a very big way.

The country singer said he wanted to crowdsource his next record, and that’s exactly what he’s doing.

“Seriously considering ‘Crowd Sourcing’ my next record,” he wrote on social media earlier this week. “Like just put up a bunch of demos and worktapes to see what y’all like best.”

He followed through, but he’s being sneaky about it.

Just a few days after suggesting the idea, social media accounts under the handle @lcombs77 started garnering attention.

The pages have no profile photos attached to them — just the name Luke Combs and a bio that reads, “Crowdsourcing songs for my next album.”

Clips from 14 tracks have been loaded to the profile, with titles like “A Man was Born,” “Fastback,” “I Used to Pray” and “Some Bar.”

To add to the intrigue, both Combs and his wife Nicole follow the account.

Did Luke Combs Create a Fake Social Media Account for His Music?

The short answer is: Yes. Sources say Combs sent an email to his Bootleggers Fan Club with links to the social accounts so they could start listening.

The country hitmaker is no stranger to getting fan input on his music. He regularly shares short clips of songs he’s been working on via social media. It’s an easy way to see if he’s on the right track.

This would be a new approach to what he’s already known for.

And it looks like he’s already receiving valuable intel: The comments sections of each track are filling up with feedback. Some fans are even suggesting duet partners for some of the songs.

When Does Luke Combs’ Next Album Come Out?

Specific details like a title and release date regarding a new project from Combs have yet to be revealed. He has already released one new song, “Back in the Saddle,” which is expected to appear on his next album.

Combs has been hard at work on new music since March. He believes this album “could wind up being the best record I’ve ever made,” as he proclaimed on social media.
