TuneIn: With Beyoncé crushing it with country, it's only right Garth Brooks steps it up too
Who says The Culture doesn’t love some Southern audio brewing? With the world loving Beyoncé’s newest venture into the country genre, how about music icon Garth Brooks taking his TuneIn relationship a bit further with a new ‘Artist to Artist’ interview series on The BIG 615?
You’ll have to wait a few more hours with April 2 locked in for the premiere but rest assured some deep dives are on deck once this series kicks off.
TuneIn, the world’s leader in live audio, announced the launch of a new interview series hosted by Garth Brooks, Artist to Artist, on The BIG 615 powered by Tractor Supply Company. The series features intimate conversations between Brooks and fellow musicians to take fans beyond the music and bring them closer to the most influential country music artists. The series debuts with a multi-part interview with Lainey Wilson beginning April 2 during The Storme Warren Show.
During the interview, Brooks and Wilson dive into their own experiences as artists, entertainers and songwriters. The conversation takes an emotional turn when the two talk about family, the early supporters and their humble beginnings in country music.
The interview will be available beginning April 2 at 8 a.m. CT in hour-long segments on The BIG 615, repeating at 11 a.m. CT throughout the week. Brooks has lined up high-profile interviews with the biggest names in country music that will be available regularly throughout the year.
“Garth Brooks understands every aspect of an artist's journey, making him the perfect host to connect with the most influential country music artists on a level that few others can,” said Rich Stern, CEO of TuneIn. “The Artist to Artist series allows fans to connect with their favorite stars on a much deeper level. Lainey Wilson’s interview with Garth sets the stage for an incredible lineup of interviews that will resonate with music fans everywhere.”
The BIG 615 is the top global country music station on TuneIn. From the mind of Brooks, the station introduces a fresh, new take on country music from the heart of Music City. Artist to Artist is the latest addition to The BIG 615’s lineup of award-winning programming like The Storme Warren Show, as well as new programs hosted by top global country music radio personalities.
