Luke Combs Song For Gabby

A few weeks ago, Gabby Barrett told Country Countdown USA’s Lon Helton that Luke Combs wrote a song that will appear on her next album. Lon played that audio clip for Luke, and he revealed the back story of the song: “Great tune, I won’t give anything away, because it’s her album. But at the time I came up with a bunch of song ideas about our son, who was about to be born, but we didn’t know if it was going to be a boy or a girl. I came up with some boy titles and girl titles, and this song was one of the girl titles. But it’s not about a kid. That was where the title came from. It’s a great song, one of the favorites I’ve written. When you hear the song, you’ll realize why I couldn’t put it out.” Lon asked, how long did it take her to decide? “About a half hour.”

Luke went on to say, “We had her in mind when we wrote it. It’s a real singer’s song, and she has a real strong voice.” Gabby has since posted an excerpt of a new song on her Instagram. Luke’s two co-writers, James McNair and Emily Weisband, liked Gabby’s post. So it may be Gabby’s next single!
