Luke Combs’ longtime guitarist Rob Williford will be moving on. Williford announced his departure via social media on Wednesday, February 15th. In the announcement he expresses that there are no negative feelings between himself and the band.
His post reads, “I always knew that I would just know — and I know — it’s time. That doesn’t make it one bit easier, I am equally as terrified of the future as I am excited for it. No I’m not going out on my own. No, I’m not pursuing a career as an artist. And no, I’m not doing Liberty Mutual commercials, Through the good, the bad and ugly of this surreal simulation I sometimes feel like I’m living in, one person has always had my back. A brother in the truest sense of the word, Luke, I owe you so much, man. There are no words. I could never thank you enough for your loyalty and your friendship and for allowing me to be part of your journey over the years.”
Williford concluded the post by saying, “We have another Song of the Year to write soon, I love you. Thank you for believing in me.”
While Combs admitted in the comments that he got a bit emotional reading the post, saying, “God dang, that one got me, Love you too buddy. We got plenty of songs and memories ahead of us too.”
