Luke Combs was everywhere last night, not only was he honored at the 14th Annual Academy of Country Music Honors, but he also took the stage to honor Charley Pride on the CMT Giants: Charley Pride Special.
No, Luke isn’t magic and can’t be in two places at once (although it may seem like he is), the ACM Honors was a LIVE event last night which you can watch here, and the Charley Pride special was previously taped.
It was a special moment for Luke who was one of many who was inspired by Charley to become an entertainer.

“Kiss An Angel Good Morning” was Charley Pride’s biggest hit and Luke got to take the stage with Robert Randolph and Reyna Roberts to perform one of the greats!
Other incredible performances by George Strait, Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, LeAnn Womack, Wynonna, Gladys Knight, Jimmie Allen, and Mickey Guyton.
AND Charley’s son Dion also performed a song sure to put a smile on his dad’s face.
Dion Pride, your dad is smiling down with a "Mountain of Love" 💛 #CMTGiants pic.twitter.com/8PV4qzEIG9
