Garth Brooks Tour Kicks Off in Chicago; Country Superstar Unveils GhostTunes.Com For Free Music; Debuts `Brooks Bundle’ Complete Catalog

Garth Brooks kicks off his "The Garth Brooks World Tour with Trisha Yearwood" comeback tour with the first of 11 shows planned in the Chicago area today.


The country artist also unveils GhostTunes.com, a new online music store that will see the digital debut of the "Brooks Bundle," which will feature Garth's complete catalog, including the pre-order of his two upcoming albums. 


GhostTunes.com arrives with the digital distribution debut of Garth Brooks complete catalog, a super bundle of the artists existing music and videos as well as pre-order of his much anticipated 2014 album and newly announced 2015 album.


The new double live 25th Anniversary Edition features 30 songs along with 30 videos, an instant download of the new single, "People Loving People" and the bonus track, "Send 'Em On Down The Road." Other songs from Garth's upcoming album will automatically arrive in a user's GhostTunes locker as they become available prior to the arrival of the complete digital album on Black Friday, as well as an additional 2015 Garth Brooks album. 


"When I decided it was time to 'go digital' I didn't find an existing way that really fit how I wanted to do it," said Garth Brooks. "I shared my dream with some amazing minds and together have created something really special - GhostTunes.com. This is a site that treats music with the utmost respect, where our job everyday is to offer music the way the artists want to share it to the listeners who live for and love it. That's a job I hope I can do everyday."


Garth Brooks believesd music fans and artists deserve more. The featured offering of GhostTunes.com is the debut of Garth Brooks music in a digital format. The singer unveiled the beta launch of GhostTunes.com, which is a full-service music store that gives fans the freedom to listen to the music they purchase on the platform and device of their choice.


GhostTunes.com lets fans listen to their music from their personal "locker" immediately upon purchase, without having to download the content to their device. Listeners are also able to download their purchased content to play with the audio player of their choice on a phone, tablet or computer. 


GhostTunes.com also provides artists with a new way to sell their music any way they dream. 


GhostTunes.com is also invited artists to present their music beyond the now standard single and album download. Artists can choose to sell full albums, singles only, or however they'd like to extend the creative process they have in the studio to the final sale. 


"Anyone familiar with the music industry knows the passion Garth has for bridging the wants and needs of artists and fans - something that the entire team has used as a guiding principle in the creation of GhostTunes.com," said Randy Bernard, CEO of GhostTunes. "Today is a great day for fans of music and those that create it, and just wait until you see what we have planed next - you won't have to wait long."
