With song titles such as Little Country Boys, Whoever You Turn Out To Be, Remember Him That Way, My Old Man Was Right, and Take Me Out To The Ball Game, Combs has released a concept album that explores the indescribable bond between fathers and their sons.
According to a press release, Fathers & Sons was recorded “entirely live” and contains Combs’ most personal songwriting to date.
Earlier this year, Combs premiered the new “dad” song, Plant A Seed, on social media. Combs is the father of two boys: Tex Lawrence, born in June 2022, and Beau Lee, born in August 2023.
Father & Sons has already been released in some parts of the world, including the UK, Australia and New Zealand. You can check out some early reactions to the album below.
It’s out now in the UK. Honestly such a beautifully written album, really eye opening to the people around you, everyone is going to love this, thank you. ❤️

. @lukecombs about to drop a whole Fathers Day album, and for once it makes it easy to buy a Father’s Day gift for the hardest dude to shop for but the most deserving.

Always hard to tell your Dad how much he means to you, if the snippets are anything like the album, this vinyl… pic.twitter.com/xDtfNp0cs0
