Country music superstar Luke Combs played his only scheduled concert in Nashville this year at his own Category 10 mega honky-tonk in Nashville's Lower Broadway neighborhood April 15. The more than two-hour performance was held just across the river from Nissan Stadium, the last event space in which he played a full concert in Music City.
