Confirms new album
The artist partners with Sony Music’s RCA Records to distribute his new material and help with radio promotion. The album, as yet untitled, will be out around Black Friday. He says that the type of content he is known for, western fare like Rodeo and Much Too Young (To Feel This Damn Old), will be well-represented.
If you had to put it in a box for me, it’d be Garth Music. You’re damn straight we’ll do cowboys songs on this album.
Launches comeback tour
The artist reveals that his comeback tour will kick off in Chicago. He later clarifies that it will begin in September at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois, which is around 15 miles northwest of downtown Chicago.
As an entertainer, you get asked a lot, “What are the best cities to play?” Without hesitation, I rattle five or six of the best places to play, and that list always includes Chicago. It is the perfect city to launch the world tour.
