Luke Combs has debuted at #1 on the ARIA Albums Chart (all genres) with his new album, What You See Is What You Get.
This much anticipated result follows the success of Comb’s debut album This One’s For You, which is also at #17 on this weeks chart, over 2 years after release.
In fact, those albums are now #1 and #2 respectively on the ARIA Country Chart as well.
Combs, the king of Average Joes who is fast becoming the biggest “non-crossover” artist in Country Music since Garth Brooks, won the Male Vocalist of the Year and Single of the Year for ‘Beautiful Crazy’ at this week’s CMA Awards.
He also recently revealed that originally he had ambitions to be a homicide detective, before his music career took off.

This result #1 all-genre album result for Combs comes at a time when mainstream interest in Australia for country music of all kinds has never been higher.

The country genre is simply dominating the music industry across the board right now.
