The country music world has a lot of BFFs. No wonder the genre has so many great best friend songs.

Twenty-two years ago, Garth Brooks pivoted at the height of his fame to do something ... uh, let's call it "unexpected."

"It's not our decision to make," Brooks says.

It's official: Garth Brooks is ready to revive his rock star alter-ego, Chris Gaines.

He considers his Las Vegas residency a laboratory, which is great news for his fans.

Jelly got carried away in the moment when he met his country music hero.

"He was raised right, you can tell that. He just loves what he does."

"There's a lot more layers of Luke Combs we're all going to unpeel over the years, to see this kid's a lot more than we think he is."

"How many people get to say that?"

Some songs are one-man jams but many include his full band, and then some. He calls this "the muscle."
