As Luke Combs gears up to release his forthcoming album, The Way I Am, he’s giving fans a glimpse into the project by releasing the 22-song tracklist.
Among the album’s songs is a collaboration with bluegrass icon and 27-time Grammy winner Alison Krauss, who will join Combs on a song called “Ever Mine.” Combs wrote the song with singer-songwriter Hailey Whitters and CMA musician of the year winner Charlie Worsham. Krauss is known for her work leading Alison Krauss and Union Station, and for songs including her rendition of “When You Say Nothing At All,” “The Lucky One” and the Brad Paisley collaboration “Whiskey Lullaby.” In 2025, Krauss and Union Station released their first project in nearly 14 years, when they issued the project Arcadia.
Combs previously teamed up with another bluegrass luminary, Billy Strings, when they released the song “The Great Divide” in 2021.
Another song on the album also has some artist star power to it, as Cody Johnson is a cowriter on “I Ain’t No Cowboy,” along with Combs and Jake Mears.
“Super pumped to share the 22 song track list for my new album The Way I Am that will be out next month,” Combs wrote on Instagram, adding that another of the album’s songs, “Be By You,” will release Feb. 13.
Combs produced the album with Chip Matthews and Jonathan Singleton, and has been steadily previewing the album with a string releases, among them “Back in the Saddle,” which he performed while kicking off the 2025 CMA Awards ceremony in November. He’s also released or previewed songs including “Giving Her Away,” “Sleepless in a Hotel Room” and “Days Like These.”
“Days Like These” is at No. 11 on Billboard‘s Country Airplay chart, while “Sleepless in a Hotel Room” resides at No. 18 on the Country Airplay chart. Combs has earned 19 No. 1 hits to date on the Country Airplay chart, and has seen four of his albums reach the top of the Top Country Albums chart.
Combs’s album The Way I Am will arrive March 20.
