Garth Brooks Launches Tailgate Radio, His New Music And Sports Station

Garth Brooks: "This is one of those ideas someone says, 'Why didn't we do this a long time ago?' This combines everyone's passion for sports and music."

Garth Brooks is steadily rolling out the channels on his SEVENS Radio Network, and on Tuesday, the "Friends In Low Places" singer revealed the next touchdown in his broadcast game – Tailgate Radio with Maria Taylor.

"This is one of those ideas someone says, 'Why didn't we do this a long time ago?'" Brooks said in a statement. "This combines everyone's passion for sports and music. It also allows you to enjoy your tailgate, barbeque or poolside party without doing the work. There's so much music on this channel; TAILGATE RADIO will be everyone's favorite."

Available through TuneIn, Tailgate Radio combines TuneIn's global sports coverage, including complete reports on the 2023 College Football season, to boost fans' pregame activities, engage them during the event and help them celebrate their wins when it's over.

Taylor is a well-known American sportscaster who will combine her knowledge accumulated during her career with playlists to ensure fans get the most out of every listening and gaming experience.

"Working closely with Garth and his foundation as we created the PowHER program, which mentors middle school girls, has been nothing short of amazing," says Taylor. "And now, we are embarking on Garth's extraordinary vision to connect sports and music fans with Tailgate. It's such an honor to be chosen by greatness to be a partner in the radio space."

Tailgate Radio will launch in time for college football and include:

Tailgate Top 20 with Maria: Maria Taylor will DJ this weekly countdown highlighting the 20 biggest songs across genres from a specific year while running through some of the biggest sports stories from that year.

Block Party: Saturday Night 4-hour Mixshow featuring everything from Luke Combs to Beyonce to Eminem. 

Tailgate Takeover: Starting with Garth Brooks, celebs & athletes will take turns as guest hosts of the program, giving listeners a window into the music and playlists that set the vibe for their favorite stars.

Tailgate Radio is the second channel Brooks has launched on his SEVENS Radio Network that is available only on TuneIn. Brooks' first station, The BIG 615, debuted on TuneIn in June with host Storme Warren and, with its global audience, has quickly become one of the most popular stations on the platform.
