AceShowbiz - Luke Combs is gearing up to release his highly anticipated album The Way I Am and has excitedly unveiled the full 22-song tracklist to fans.
The upcoming album includes a special duet with bluegrass legend and 27-time Grammy winner Alison Krauss. She partners with Combs on the track titled “Ever Mine,” which was co-written by Combs, singer-songwriter Hailey Whitters, and CMA Musician of the Year Charlie Worsham. Krauss is widely celebrated for her work with Alison Krauss and Union Station and hits like “When You Say Nothing At All,” “The Lucky One,” and the Brad Paisley duet “Whiskey Lullaby.” In 2025, Krauss and her band released Arcadia, their first project in nearly 14 years.
Combs has previously collaborated with other bluegrass greats, including Billy Strings on the 2021 track “The Great Divide.” His new album also features notable contributions from fellow country artist Cody Johnson, who co-wrote “I Ain’t No Cowboy” alongside Combs and Jake Mears.
Sharing his excitement on Instagram, Combs wrote, “Super pumped to share the 22 song track list for my new album The Way I Am that will be out next month.” He also announced that the song “Be By You” will be released on February 13 ahead of the album launch.
Combs produced the album with Chip Matthews and Jonathan Singleton and has been steadily teasing the project by releasing several singles. Among them are “Back in the Saddle,” which he performed to open the 2025 CMA Awards, as well as “Giving Her Away,” “Sleepless in a Hotel Room,” and “Days Like These.”
The tracks “Days Like These” and “Sleepless in a Hotel Room” are currently charting well, sitting at No. 11 and No. 18 respectively on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. To date, Combs has scored 19 No. 1 hits on Country Airplay and has had four albums reach No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart.
Combs’s new album The Way I Am is set to drop on March 20, marking another major milestone in his career.
