Last December Garth Brooks released The Anthology, Part IV: Going Home. The collection contained stories and songs from his 14-year retirement and more. Today (March 3), Brooks announced the next installment in the series. The Anthology, Part V: The Comeback will drop next month.
The Anthology, Part V: The Comeback will take fans through Brooks' return to country music. More specifically, it will examine the record-breaking tour he helmed from 2014 to 2017. Like other entries in the Anthology series, the new installment will feature a book containing stories from those who lived them and more than 100 behind the scenes photos from the nearly 400 shows he played during the tour.

An installment of the Anthology series wouldn't be complete without a new collection of music. The Comeback will contain six CDs with 66 songs, which includes seven live tracks from the record-breaking comeback tour.
Brooks will release The Anthology, Part V: The Comeback on April 4 via TalkShopLive and Amazon. Ahead of the official release, the superstar will give fans more insight into that period of his life with a series of in-depth conversations with the people who were with him throughout the tour. He'll host these conversations on TalkShopLive on March 10, 17, 24, 31, and April 4.
Garth Brooks started the Anthology series in 2017 with a look at his first five years. Since then, he has been giving fans a closer look at each of the important eras in his landmark career. He explained the importance of this series in a previous press release.
"I've been in a lot of documentaries, big documentaries that span decades, where the stories that were told weren't how I remembered them," he shared. "So it was real important for these things-for the Anthologies-to be told by all the voices that were there. That's what I love," he added. "So, each one of these Anthologies, I think there's probably at least 50 to 100 voices telling this story."
So, fans won't just be getting Brooks' perspective about the events that took place on that tour. Instead, they'll get stories from band members and other people who experienced the outing firsthand.
