Garth Brooks plays Joe's Bar in Chicago tonight (July 15) on his new tour of small dives to promote his latest single with Blake Shelton, "Dive Bar."
Garth shared via his Facebook live, “The band’s comin’ with us. It’s gonna be fun. We’ll scale it down. But are we bringing the ‘oomph’ with us? Yes, we are. We’re gonna have fun.”
He continued, “We’re not bringing the background singers because, again, the space is limited. So I’m going to need to have a lot of background singers in the audience, okay? Let’s get goin’. This’ll be fun.”
Brooks' "Dive Bar" tour will play eight small bars across the country. Each club will be announced just prior to the show.
Nancy Brooks has been working in the country music industry for almost 30 years. She has interviewed pretty much any country star you can think of. In the late 1990s, she started working with Dolly Parton. And yes, Nancy reports that Parton is as sweet as you would think. She loves her life in country music and has been backstage at every CMA Awards show since the late 1990s.
Many of her stories are from her one-on-one interviews. She was there at the beginning of the incredible careers of many music superstars today, including Taylor Swift, Shania Twain, and Blake Shelton, and has interviewed them multiple times throughout the years.
