Luke Combs in First Acrisure Stadium Concert of the Season; Art All Night in Lawrenceville (Sat., 4/29/23)

1) Luke Combs was born in Charlotte, North Carolina; grew up in Asheville, and like many aspiring country musicians before him, sought his fame and fortune in Nashville. He found both. His debut album, 2017’s This One’s for You, spawned five No. 1 singles on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. The album also set a record for most weeks for a male artist at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart with 47 weeks total. “Beer Never Broke My Heart,” the first single from his 2019 LP, What You See Is What You Get, also went to No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart.  Combs is headlining his Growing Up World Tour which stops at Acrisure Stadium. At 33 years-old, Combs has garnered two Grammy Award nominations, two iHeart Radio music awards, four Academy of Country Music Awards and six Country Music Association Awards, including the prestigious Entertainer of the Year award in 2021 and 2022. His latest LP release is Gettin’ Old, which dropped last month. It contains 18 tracks and reached no. 4 on the Billboard 200 album chart. There’s even a cover of Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car.” Riley Green, Lainey Wilson, Flatland Cavalry, and Brent Cobb are also on the bill. 5:45 p.m. 100 Art Rooney Ave., North Shore. (C.M., R.H.)

2) For almost 25 years Art All Night has provided a non-juried, non-censored art show. Not only that, but one that runs for 22 hours straight. Other features include children’s and on site collaborative activities, an art auction, live bands and even comedians. Artists can display their work and/or demonstrate how they make their art. Creators of film, video, and animation will also be able to showcase their art in a video lounge. This year’s happening will take place in Lawrenceville at 31st Street Studios. The event is free to both the artists and attendees. Starts today at 4 p.m. and continues through tomorrow at 2 p.m. 77 31st. St.
