Garth is a grandpa

Friday, July 26, 2013 – Garth is a grandpa.

His middle daughter August, who was born in 1993, gave birth to a girl earlier this week.

"Our family would first like to thank everyone for their warm wishes and sweet celebration of Baby K's arrival," Brooks said. "Our children's lives have always been extremely private, and they have been endlessly encouraged to be their own people. We have always wanted them to be individuals and not be known as 'someone's daughters.' I have been amazed and grateful how the press has always respected this. I now ask that respect to please continue as this young family begins the greatest days of their lives."

The Tulsa World reported that Brooks and fellow Owasso, Okla. Resident Chance Michael Russell had Karalynn. Brooks graduated from high school this year and was attending the University of Oklahoma.

Garth Brooks has two other daughters, Taylor and Allie, who graduates high school next year. The singer has said he may return to recording when she graduates.

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 ...
CD review - Blame It All On My Roots - Five Decades of Influences 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. ...
