Description
When Luke Combs was young, his dad often played a cassette copy of Tracy Chapman's 1988 self-titled debut album, which includes the single "Fast Car," in his truck. Combs wasn't looking to capitalize on the hit song when he recorded his version—"I was just doing it for me," says Combs, who has been performing "Fast Car" since his earliest live shows.
Still, Combs's version became a global hit. It also won Single and Song of the Year awards from the Country Music Association, making Chapman the first Black woman to win a CMA award. Chapman and Combs performed the song together at the 2024 Grammys to great acclaim.
In July, Combs took the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum stage with several of his co-writers to celebrate the opening of the exhibit "Luke Combs: The Man I Am." In this clip from the program, he performs "Fast Car."
