Tonight, NBC will air the Toby Keith: American Icon TV special and the list of stars that will be on it is impressive.
Toby was one of the biggest names in country music of all-time. His big personality, huge heart, patriotism and support of the U.S.A. service men and women took his fame beyond country music. He passed away in February of this year from stomach cancer.
A tribute concert was put together for Toby and took place at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena July 29th. A portion of the ticket sales from the concert benefited The Toby Keith Foundation’s OK Kids Korral and Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt.
That concert was filmed to create tonight’s TV special. The list of artists appearing on the show include:
- Carrie Underwood
- Eric Church
- HARDY
- Brantley Gilbert
- Darius Rucker
- Riley Green
- Ella Langley
- Lainey Wilson
- Jamey Johnson
- Jelly Roll
- Luke Bryan
- Ashley McBryde
- Parker McCollum
- Jordan Davis
- Clay Walker
- Krystal Keith
- Scotty Emerick
- Mac McAnally
- Tyler Hubbard
- HARDY
- Trace Adkins
Not only will artists perform Toby’s songs, they will also share their thoughts about what made Toby Keith the iconic star that he was. Here’s a sneak peek of what Blake Shelton had to say about his fellow Okie…
