“Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood embark on their most personal journey yet to build the honky-tonk of their dreams in the heart of Nashville,” the streamer said in press materials about “Friends in Low Places,” which is named after Brooks’ hit 1990 song.

“Paying tribute to his roots, Garth enlists the help of his friends, day-one tour team and an all-star hospitality group to open the epic, four-story bar on Lower Broadway.

​”This is a labor of love and his thank you to the community of Music City.”

“This is so much more than I bargained for!” Brooks said in the release. “With that said, what we have built is far more than just a business.

“This is, by far, the craziest ride I have ever been on.”

​The series is produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Casey Patterson Entertainment, with Brooks, Patterson and Carol Donovan serving as executive producers.

“We started down this road fueled by passion, dedication and a shared vision,” Yearwood said. “I’m really proud of the team that has built the Friends bar and honky-tonk.

“We are excited to share the culmination of everyone’s efforts,” she added. “It’s even bigger than we dreamed!”

Brooks and Yearwood are two of the biggest names in country music. The powerhouse couple — Brooks is 62, Yearwood is 59 — have been married since 2005.

Brooks has three daughters from his first marriage to songwriter Sandy Mahl (they divorced in 2001): Taylor Mayne Pearl, August Anna and Allie Colleen Brooks.
