The last time <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cmt.com\/news\/1801668\/luke-combs-the-year-end-qa\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">we caught up with him<\/a>, he said he went from \u201cMan, you know I\u2019m not down with country right now\u201d to \u201cMan, the songs just aren\u2019t that great\u201d to paying off his student loans, giving his parents his Ford Fusion, and then most recently, flying to Stagecoach in a private plane.<\/p>\n<p>And yet, Combs hasn\u2019t really changed at all. He is still the guy who could easily be your college buddy, the guy who can <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lukecombs\/status\/1136008566194749441?s=20\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">shotgun a beer<\/a> better than anyone, your low-key next door neighbor, or someone just trying to convince you that a long neck, ice cold beer never broke his heart.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re guessing that that sentiment will earn Combs another <em>CMT Music Awards<\/em> nomination in 2020.<\/p>\n<div class=\"deferred_content\">Embedded from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7Lb9dq-JZFI?feature=oembed\">www.youtube.com<\/a>. <noscript class=\"deferred_content\" data-deferred-info=\"{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;iframe&quot;}\"><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7Lb9dq-JZFI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\">[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><\/noscript><\/div>\n<p>This year\u2019s <em>CMT Music Awards<\/em> will be broadcast live from Nashville\u2019s Bridgestone Arena on Wednesday night (June 5) at 8 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n<div class=\"description\">Alison makes her living loving country music.
