Brooks and Yearwood’s special will be filmed live from their home and will see the two singers taking requests from their fans. Fans were able to make those requests on Brooks’ new weekly Facebook Live show, Inside Studio G. CBS has confirmed that the special will involve minimal crew and that those involved will practice social distancing. They added that there will be extensive precautions in place during the event, which will see proceeds going towards the charities of Brooks and Yearwood’s choice.
“We’re seeing how big things can be when we all do them as one,”Brooks and Yearwood said in a statement, per Rolling Stone. “In addition to the special, we and CBS will donate $1 million to charities to be determined combating the COVID-19 virus.”
“After we saw Garth and Trisha crash Facebook, we reached out to them about bringing this Studio G to a larger audience in a safe and exciting way,” Jack Sussman, CBS’ executive vice president of specials, music and live events, added. “With Garth and Trisha coupled with the power of broadcast television, anything can happen, making this an event not to be missed.”
