Luke Combs ‘Very Thankful’ To Eric Church For Duet

Luke Combs's new duet with Eric Church called "Does For Me" came about when Luke had his management reached out to Eric's. Luke told us, "My number one songwriting hero definitely is Eric Church. I think there are these subtleties that he has in his music- just different ways of saying things that have been said a million times that I’m such a huge fan of. It’s something that I try to emulate. And, when I asked my management to reach to his management I didn’t know him personally at that time. We had opened a few shows for him, but had never hung out or really met or anything."

Combs continues, "I was definitely nervous, cuz he’s a very selective guy about things that he’ll attach his name to. So, I made it clear to my management like ‘Hey, no pressure. I don’t want him to do this if he doesn’t like the song. You know, it’s not gonna hurt my feelings.’ It totally would have hurt my feelings, by the way. As a man, I would have stomached it. But, I’m very thankful that he dedicated some time to it. It means a lot to me- might not mean much to you, but it 'Does To Me' obviously. You know, it’s just a dream come true and you know- so I’m definitely stoked about it for sure."
