Luke Combs: ‘One Number Away’ Single Review

Luke Combs came onto the country music scene not necessarily like a hurricane but left an impression on us all with the release of his first single of that name.   Rightfully so, Combs earned himself a spot on a lot of people’s ‘Must Watch’ or ‘Up and Coming Artists’ lists for 2017 and even a CMT nomination for Breakthrough Artist of 2017.  Proving himself with two #1 hits, ‘Hurricane’ and ‘When It Rains it Pours,’  he has turned a lot of spectators into fans.  And although he made it big this past year, a personal favorite of mine is his 2016 single, ‘She Got The Best of Me.’

Just as he did with ‘She Got the Best of Me’ and ‘Hurricane,’ Combs wins us over time-and-time again as he reminisces over an old love interest.  ‘One Number Away,’ written by Combs, Sammy Mitchell, Steven Andre Battey, and Robert Williford, does exactly that!  With his third single off his debut album, ‘This One’s for You,’ gets you thinking about an ex, wondering what they are doing and if they are thinking of you too.

We have all had a time or two where we find ourselves thinking about calling that one person we maybe, shouldn’t be calling.  The slow intro and each strum of the guitar reels you in creating that feeling of heaviness and gloom that thinking about your ex sometimes leaves you with.  You wonder how they are but then the hook picks up.  The recently released music video displays that rainy day feeling these cords depict so well.

‘One Number Away’ is a song you want to see live. And while he is rounding out his own headlining tour Don’t Tempt Me With a Good Time, he will be joining Jason Aldean on his High Noon Neon tour coming to New England the last weekend of May.  You can check all additional dates here!
