Garth Brooks’ New “Fun” Album Debuts at No. 7 on the Billboard Top Country Albums Chart

Garth Brooks released his new album, Fun, on Nov. 20.

Fun debuted at No. 7 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart this week. The 14-song offering moved 18,000 equivalent album units, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data.

While Fun had the best debut on the chart at No. 7, it was topped by Luke Combs’ What You See Is What You Get (No. 1), Chris Stapleton’s Starting Over (No. 2), Carrie Underwood’s My Gift (No. 3), Dolly Parton’s A Holly Dolly Christmas (No. 4), Morgan Wallen’s If I Know Me (No. 5) and Luke Combs’ This One’s for You (No. 6).

Garth’s new album includes his current single, “Shallow,” featuring Trisha Yearwood, as well as tunes “That’s What Cowboys Do,” “The Road I’m On,” “Courage of Love,” “Party Gras,” “All Day Long,” “Stronger Than Me,” “Dive Bar” with Blake Shelton, and more.

“What I love about this record—it’s as fun as any record, if not more fun than any record, we’ve ever done,” says Garth. “But at the same time, it’s gonna have those ‘Garth moments’ that’s gonna take you all the way back to the first album. And that’s what made it not only fun to record, but fun to listen to.”
