Country star Trisha Yearwood will miss two of the seven shows she and husband Garth Brooks have planned for Spokane.

The performances are part of the Garth Brooks World Tour, which is coming to Spokane in early November.

Yearwood announced Tuesday that, due to scheduling conflicts, she won’t be able to perform at the Nov. 9 and Nov. 14 shows – the opening and closing nights – at Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena.

Nov. 9, Yearwood will be finishing the filming of her cooking show. Nov. 14, she will be filming the CMA Christmas Music Special in Nashville. She will perform at the other five shows in Spokane.

All concerts on the Garth Brooks World Tour in Spokane are sold out. It will be the last Washington, Idaho and Montana appearance of tour and the first time Brooks is performing in Spokane since 1998.

The tour is presented by Amazon Music Unlimited.
