Garth Brooks Working on New Songs and Album for 2014 Tour After Coming Out of Retirement

Garth Brooks is making music. The legendary singer is back in the biz and back at the top with his 9th number one record, a six-CD, two-DVD box set titled, Blame It All on My Roots. Brooks recently released that he was coming out of retirement and going on tour. Now Brooks has announced that he is working on new songs for 2014. Could we see a new Brooks' album in the near future?

Garth Brooks is one of the best selling artists of all time. The country star ranks right behind Elvis and The Beatles for most albums sold. Now Brooks can add one more number one album to his list. What makes his recent accomplishment even more impressive is the fact that the record, Blame It All on My Roots, is only available via one outlet. The six-CD, two-DVD box set, can only be bought at Wal-Mart stores. Brooks is not a big fan of iTunes and has given the mega-store exclusive rights to the collection.

Earlier in the month, Brooks announced that he was heading on tour, telling ABC’s Good Morning America

“It sure feels good to get to throw your hat back in the ring. All my babies are fine with it. Ms. Yearwood is fine with it. So now I get to do what I love to do, which is play music. I get to be with the person I want to be with, which is Ms. Yearwood...Our baby is a senior in high school.My children are off on their own so the guilt of not being there…I’m a phone call dad now. ‘Hey Dad, I love you, can I borrow some money?’ ”

Brooks recently spoke with Minneapolis’ BUZN 102.9, where he talked about the new tour and broke news that he was working on brand new music:

“As excited as you are, I’m a thousand times more excited. It was like a 4,000-pound weight that came off my chest when I just said, ‘Yes I’m coming out [on tour].’ The world tour is all going to be the stuff you know Garth from and all the new stuff that’s coming. I can’t tell you how excited I am about that. It’s a new tour. New Garth music that I hope gets treated like the old stuff.”

How excited are you about new Garth Brooks music?
