About
Garth Brooks has been certified by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) as the top-selling solo artist in U.S. history with 135 million albums. He is also the fastest-selling album artist in RIAA history and the only solo artist to have 6 albums top the 10 million mark.
Garth spent more weeks at #1 on the album sales charts than any other artist since the inception of SoundScan. He has taken 25 singles to the #1 position on the country charts. When his recent boxed set “Blame It All On My Roots” debuted at #1, it marked the 13th time Garth had accomplished this feat – making him the highest country debut leader of all time.
In December 2013, on the heels of a successful Las Vegas run, Garth surprised fans and Robin Roberts on Good Morning America by revealing his plans to return to touring in 2014. Fans all over the world were thrilled. One month later, he broke another record when he sold out five consecutive dates at Croke Park in Dublin. Over 400,000 tickets were sold — a feat no other artist has achieved.
