Could Luke Combs be formulating an exit strategy for his music career already? Luke’s first single, “Hurricane,” came out almost ten years ago, but his career started several years before that. Now that he’s achieved almost everything one can achieve in country music, and he has a wife and three young children, Luke may think there’s more to life than work. On Bert Kresicher‘s “Bertcast” podcast, they talked about how Garth Brooks walked away from country music while at the very top of his game, and whether Luke has considered a similar move. “That day is rapidly approaching. That will happen at some point. I think you have to accept that, and I think it’s okay to not want that to happen…” He added that he wasn’t sure exactly what form the decision to walk away would take. “I wonder if I want to do the slow decline thing and be okay with it. Which I would be if that’s what I decided to do. Or do you just (cut it off and) hit delete? And you’re just kind of like, ‘I’m out for a while.’ And I’m just gone for the next five years.” Check out the complete episode of the podcast here.
