NEW YORK, March 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM announced today that it will broadcast Garth Brooks' weekly Facebook Live show, Inside Studio G on Brooks' exclusive SiriusXM channel, The Garth Channel (ch. 55) on Monday, March 23 at 7:00 p.m. ET/4:00 p.m. PT.
Monday's special edition, Inside Studio G: By Request, will continue to provide its weekly dose of social media engagement, but will include a live acoustic performance aimed towards providing a sense of community during this time of uncertain change in people's everyday life and social distancing.
Beginning Sunday, March 22, fans can submit questions and song requests across Brooks' social media platforms (listed below) and can tune in live on March 23 to hear his answers and music performed by Brooks from his home. He will also be joined by Trisha Yearwood.
"Music is just one of those things that is more fun when you have people to dance with you," said Brooks. "Since we are all being asked to be apart, this seems to be a cool way to come together, and when you think about it, coming together no matter who you are or where you are from is what The Garth Channel on SiriusXM is all about."
Garth Brooks is the 7-time CMA Entertainer of the Year, a first for any artist. He is also the first and only artist in history to receive eight Diamond Awards for the now eight albums certified by the RIAA at over 10 million album sales each. Brooks remains the No. 1-selling solo artist in U.S. history, certified by the RIAA with 156 million album sales and has received every accolade the recording industry can bestow on an artist. In March 2019, Garth launched The Stadium Tour, which has broken stadium attendance records at every stop on the tour so far and was named the best-selling country music tour of 2019 by Pollstar.
The Garth Channel, curated and presented by Brooks, debuted on SiriusXM in 2016 and features music from Brooks spanning four decades, along with songs from the artists that influenced his iconic career. The channel also includes regularly hosted shows and behind-the-scenes commentary from Brooks, guest DJ specials hosted by Brooks' fans and friends, live concert recordings and other rarities from Brooks' treasured archives.
