Luke Combs to bring first headline tour to Tulsa

TULSA — Country music up-and-comer Luke Combs will kick off his first headline arena tour, the “Beer Never Broke My Heart Tour,” in 2019.

The extensive tour — which will feature special guests LANCO and Jameson Rodgers — will commence Jan. 31 at Birmingham’s Legacy Arena at the BJCC and will span through the spring. The newly-named 2018 iHeartRadio Music Awards Best New Country Artist, Combs will make an Oklahoma stop May 10 at Tulsa’s BOK Center, 200 S Denver.

Tickets go on sale at noon Friday and will be available online at www.bokcenter. com or by calling 866-726-5287. Tickets will no be available for purchase at the Arby’s Box Office at BOK Center on the first day of ticket sales. Remaining available tickets will be available for purchase at the BOK Center Box Office on the next business day that the box office is open.

In an effort to combat scalping, fan club tickets will be sold through the Ticketmaster Verified Fan program, according to a news release, and all tickets will have fan-focused pricing offered between $25 and $50.

His second headline tour, the “Beer Never Broke My Heart Tour” follows Combs’ recordbreaking, 55-city sold-out “Don’t Tempt Me With A Good Time Tour” — completed earlier this year — and will be preceded by a series of fall U.K./European headline shows, which sold out months in advance.

The tour culminates a breakthrough year for Combs, which saw the release of his platinum-certified debut album, “This One’s For You,” released on River House Artists/ Columbia Nashville, and two recent nominations at the 2018 Country Music Association Awards for Male Vocalist of the Year and New Artist of the Year.

“This One’s For You” is currently the most streamed country album of 2018, achieving more than one billion streams. It was also the largest album debut from a new country artist in 2017, according to a news release.
