Toby Keith Live in Overdrive Tour 2012

The success of country music stars is quite epic in the U.S. music scene. Trust it to be a favorite genre of music by millions of people and blame it on the simple yet often catchy melodies with lyrics that everyone else can relate to. These songs all talk about life and how we all live it. Sometimes, it tells you a story about someone’s life that you can’t help but relate to. Other times, it could be something random like how one country music singer came out with a song using the famed red plastic cups widely used at parties for downing just about any liquid, especially alcohol.

And so, “Red Solo Cup” became a huge hit and brought a country music star, who has already had his taste of stardom, to even greater fame thanks to the Internet. This star’s name is Toby Keith and in 2011 he reached his highest debut on the Billboard Hot 100, ranking at #17. A few months later, he was named “Artist of the Decade” by the American Country Awards. But that is just part of the many lucky strikes this guy, who originally hails from Clinton, Oklahoma, has had in his career.

His career took off early when in 1993, Mercury Records executive Harold Shedd came to watch him in one of his performances after listening to a demo tape handed in by a flight attendant who happened to be one of Keith’s fans. His debut single quickly shot to #1 on the Billboard country chart. He had so many hit singles following that famed debut.

He signed on to different recording companies and eventually started his own, Show Dog Nashville. With his first album for his own recording company, he debuted on top of the Billboard 200 charts. From then on, his career has never been silent because he would move on to record other albums and tour with other artists all over the U.S. and overseas.

Toby Keith’s Live in Overdrive Tour kicked off last June 14 in Salt Lake City just in time for the summer. The concert is set to run until September touring different cities and ending it in Boston. He will be performing several of his hits live including his latest single “Beers Ago” from his most recent album “Clancy’s Tavern”. But of course who would ever think he would miss out on singing everyone’s favorites “Red Solo Cup” and “Made In America”.
