TobyKeith是一个乡村歌手，歌词作者，他一向反对人们将他定型。小时候，keith的祖母有一个俱乐部，总有歌手为客人们唱歌，keith就是听着这些歌声长大的。八岁时，他得到了自己的第一把吉它，不过他并没有打算以音乐为生。后来他丢掉了油田的工作，有了空闲时间，就开始和一些车库乐队混在一起。45岁的托比-凯斯(Toby Keith)已经囊括了世界级乡村摇滚音乐的全部奖项。俄克拉荷马州农场出生的他过着质朴单纯的生活。一心成为职业橄榄球明星的他在32岁时出了第一张专辑，如梦般的13年来出了9张专辑，累计销售两千万。他像每一个美国人一样狂爱着福特F150，他甚至为钟爱的品牌写下了脍炙人口的《Ford Truck Man》。他有足够的理由成为福特百年庆典邀请名单上位列第一的演艺明星。
