He was invited to become a member of the Grand Ole Opry. A video was posted last night on Twitter. His first Grand Ole Opry performance was just three years ago. Since that day, his career has taken off. Luke Combs was quite overcome with emotion when he accepted. He has to be excited especially since the offer was presented by Country music legends John Conlee, Craig Morgan, and Chris Janson.
Some Twitter users were not so happy about the announcement commenting about how he is still a “newbie.” Although Luke Combs is young and still somewhat new to the industry, his talent is remarkable. This honor is well deserved.
