Earlier this month, Luke Combs played at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, joining a diverse lineup that included Pearl Jam, Dave Matthews Band, and Lil Wayne. While some questioned the inclusion of a country artist at a jazz-focused event, Combs proved he belonged with a standout performance that showcased both his vocal power and versatility.
During the festival, Combs joined forces with New Orleans legend Ivan Neville for a performance of “Bring It On Home To Me” — the 1962 classic originally recorded by Sam Cooke. The collaboration took place at Preservation Hall, where Combs also performed alongside the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, a historic and iconic group founded in the early 1960s.
The surprise performance blended genres in a way that felt natural and powerful, with Combs’ soulful vocals backed by rich jazz instrumentation. The Preservation Hall Jazz Band continues to carry the city’s musical torch, and their pairing with Combs created a memorable cross-genre moment. The video of the performance has since been shared online, offering fans a unique glimpse at Combs stepping into a different musical space while remaining true to his roots.
Check out the amazing performance.
