Toby Keith To Appear At Riverbend 2017
Toby Keith To Appear At Riverbend 2017

In the first announcement of the year for Riverbend 2017, Friends of the Festival has snagged one of the biggest artists of all time – Toby Keith. With over 40 million records sold, Keith has been at the top of the game for over 20 years.

With songs like “I Should Have Been A Cowboy, As Good As I Once Was, Red Solo Cup, Beer For My Horses, American Soldier, Courtesy Of The Red White & Blue, and I Love This Bar”, Toby Keith has had 20 Number One hits.

Toby Keith will headline the Coca-Cola Stage on Wednesday, June 14. Because Keith’s catalog is so big, there will be no early show on the Coke Stage in order to allow Toby Keith to perform a longer set.

Also announced for Riverbend 2017, rising Country star Brett Young will headline the Bud Light Stage on Wednesday, June 14 at 8 p.m. Many critics believe Young will be at the same level as Florida-Georgia Line or Jake Owen by the time Riverbend rolls around.

Riverbend wristbands are available online at www.riverbendfestival.com, as are star seats for Toby Keith. 

I’ll see you out!
