The Country and Music world is mourning one of its legends today as Toby Keith has passed away at the age of 62.

He was diagnosed with stomach cancer in the Fall of 2021 which he shared with his fans on his Instagram and said he needed time to “breathe, recover and relax.”

Keith had recently returned to Las Vegas for a handful of shows and also received the Country Icon Award at the 2023 People’s Choice Awards in September.

He was also awarded with the National Medal of Arts in 2021 and had performed events for Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Donald Trump.

Toby Keith had over 20 studio albums and over #1 Billboard singles through his career.

He is survived by his wife and three children.
