Luke Combs and Cody Johnson joined forces for an epic collaboration at the Stagecoach Festival on Sunday evening (May 1).
In the midst of his headlining set on the Mane Stage, the country superstar shocked the massive crowd in Indio, California, with a special duet alongside fellow Mane Stage performer, “‘Til You Can’t” singer Cody Johnson.
Combs dubbed Johnson as “the baddest dude in country” as he exited the stage after joining Combs an epic duet of Brooks & Dunn’s “Brand New Man,” a song co-written by Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn alongside Don Cook. The tune was first released in June 1991 as Brooks & Dunn’s debut single and went on to become the country duo’s first No. 1 hit. Later, in 2019, Brooks & Dunn re-recorded the tune with Luke Combs for their star-studded Reboot album.
Combs and Johnson teamed up for a rowdy rendition of the classic country hit hours after Johnson delivered an electrifying set earlier in the day on the same stage.
The performance prompted a massive sing-along with the capacity crowd.

Johnson will also join Combs on his sold-out Stadium tour this summer. The trek, which features support from Zach Bryan and Morgan Wade, kicks off on May 21 in Denver, Colorado at Empower Field and makes stops in Seattle, Washington at Lumen Field on June 4 and Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia on July 30.
Before hitting the road with Johnson, Combs will embark on his headlining Middle Of Somewhere tour with direct support from Jordan Davis. The trek, which kicks off on September 2 in Bangor, ME, will also feature special guests Morgan Wade and Lainey Wilson on select dates.
