Explained simply

Garth Brooks was one of the best-selling music artists of the 1990s and 2000s, with a career centred on large-scale country music concerts. His arena shows featured a distinctive in-the-round stage setup where the audience surrounded the performer on all sides.

Brooks has largely stepped back from touring in recent years, but is now announcing a new tour titled "Blame It All On My Roots" that will see him return to arena shows. The tour will launch in Indianapolis and will bring back the in-the-round stage format that characterised his earlier performances. More dates in other cities are expected to be announced later.

For fans, the tour represents an opportunity to see one of country music's most commercially successful artists perform live after years of limited touring. The announcement also reflects the market demand for established country acts in the arena touring circuit.
