The new track, “5 Leaf Clover,” portends Combs’ newest album, Gettin’ Old, which is set to drop on Friday, March 25.
The new song, as the title might suggest, has a bit of an Irish folk song feel. In it, Combs talks about going to work and coming home to an angel “sent from above.” It’s written by Combs, Jessi Alexander, and Chase McGill.
“A while back my buddy Newdy and I were looking around the clover plot at my house for 4 leaf clovers,” Combs says. “I eventually found one, but shortly thereafter, he found a 5 leaf clover and I thought to myself, ‘Man, how lucky do you have to be to find a 5 leaf clover?’ Didn’t think too much of it at the time but wrote that down as a title on my phone.
“A few weeks later, I was writing with Jessi Alexander and Chase McGill and it came up. It still wasn’t really anything that jumped off the page to me, but I shared the idea and guitar melody I had with them and they loved it. We ended up writing the song that day. I eventually started playing it at shows and posting a video of the song, and y’all quickly let me know it was one I had to record; that’s why I’m super pumped for y’all to finally hear it!”
The new track is the fourth song released by Combs ahead of his new LP, which itself is a companion album to his popular 2022 record, Growin’ Up. Combs has also released the songs “Joe,” “Growin’ Up,” Gettin’ Old” and “Love You Anyway.”
To promote the new music and to see his fans, Combs will begin his upcoming world tour on March 25 with 16 North American stadium shows. The tour boasts 39 shows across three continents and 16 countries.
Reflecting on the new record, Combs says, “This album is about the stage of life I’m in right now. One that I’m sure a lot of us are in, have been through or will go through. It’s about coming of age, loving where life is now but at the same time missing how it used to be, continuing to fall for the one you love and loving them no matter what, living in the moment but still wondering how much time you have left, family, friends, being thankful, and leaving a legacy. Me and so many others have poured their hearts and souls into this record, and I hope you love it as much as we do.”
