Luke Combs Explains What A “Nashville No” Is

Luke Combs recently explained what a “Nashville No” looks like in the country music business.

In an interview on “Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard”, Luke was talking about the early days of his career and how he was far from an overnight success.

One of his first songs was “Hurricane,” which would eventually become his breakthrough hit.

But did you know that Sony turned down Luke initially?

“They passed on me the first time . . . I always called it the ‘Nashville No’. Which is like, ‘We’ll be in touch,’ but really means, ‘We’re not going to be in touch.’ Just tell me no. I’d rather just hear that.”

Luckily for Luke, they eventually came to their senses, and everything worked out great in the end.
