Toby Keith will has added capital city dates in addition to his headline CMC Rocks The Hunter show.
Keith will perform in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne in March as well as his Hope Estate date.
Eli Young Band and Kellie Pickler will support.
Chuggi is excited about the tour. “Toby Keith is one of the biggest artists in modern country music,” he said. “We’ve been hearing about his rowdy, rockin’ live show in this country for many years. One of the biggest songwriters in any genre, Aussie audiences have really connected with his irreverent humour. We still think “he’s as good as he once was”- and with three international heavyweights on one bill, this is going to be the country tour of the year – my mate Jimmy Buffett said he is not to be missed!”
“The Outlaws of country music have always been huge with Aussie fans,” promoter Rob Potts said in a statement. “No surprise this country started out as a convict settlement. So we know why the fans are so excited about Toby’s first ever tour here. They love his larrikin outlaw attitude and the fact that he doesn’t take himself too seriously. We’re super excited to have him touring in March and know the fans will go wild when he rolls out his incredible catalogue of hits. It’s also terrific to welcome back Eli Young Band and to have Kellie Pickler on her first visit down under.”
