Brooks looks to have "Fun"
Monday, January 21, 2019 – Garth Brooks said "Fun" will be the name of his upcoming studio album.
Brooks revealed the news during "Inside Studio G," a weekly Facebook Live series airing every Monday on his Facebook page at 7 p.m. eastern.
Brooks has already released a honky tonk-styled tune, "All Day Long" and the ballad "Stronger Than Me."
"The title of the album was sparked because making it has been such a fun process to go through," Brooks said. "Being able to go in and out of the studio while being on the tour, working with the same guys, it's been amazing. The album will be available this spring, and I want the fans to just have fun with this because that's what this has been."
Brooks also will go on tour later this year.

After releasing his debut album in 1989, Garth Brooks released music almost every year until he announced his retirement in 2000. Since then, he has released repackaged hit collections, new music on "Scarecrow" and "The Lost Sessions" and last year's cover song collection "Blame it All on My Roots." Over the years, there have been live recordings, concert and music video collections. The country songwriter became a pop culture icon, transcending genre to become ...
Garth Brooks is back with his first release of "new" material since 2001's "Scarecrow." (Truth in advertising, his "The Ultimate Hits," which actually is part of the new box set, included four new songs back in 2007). And it's quite an undertaking - four CDs of covers - Country Classics, Classic Rock, Blue-Eyed Soul and Melting Pot, an amalgam of country, rock, soul and folk; the two-CD set, "The Ultimate Set" and a DVD of his live performance in Vegas. ...
