Add this to your “not-to-be-missed” calendar. Country superstars Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood will perform a live concert from their home recording studio, Studio G, on CBS (that’s KCNC, CBS 4 in Denver) on Wednesday, April 1 at 8 p.m. our time. Garth & Trisha: Live By Request! will include requests from fans. Inspiration for the performance came from a live show that Brooks performed from his studio last week, which attracted millions of viewers and caused Facebook Live to crash multiple times.
The pair will bring their unique blend of casual style, remarkable chemistry and shared love of music to a television audience, emphasizing the message that “we’re all in this together.”
The special will be filmed without a live audience and will involve a minimal crew practicing social distancing and will be filmed with extensive safety precautions in place. Proceeds from the special will go to charities of the couple’s choice.
“After we saw Garth and Trisha crash Facebook, we reached out to them about bringing this Studio G to a larger audience in a safe and exciting way,” said Executive Vice President of Specials, Music and Live Events Jack Sussman.
“With Garth and Trisha coupled with the power of broadcast television, anything can happen, making this an event not to be missed.”
Will it be on again ?
Mickie – I haven’t heard if they plan to rebroadcast it or not. You might check Garth Brooks Facebook page as he sometimes posts links to videos there, but since this was on CBS, they might not let him do so. Likely you can also watch it again if you have CBS All Access (which is offering a free trial right now). — Laura
