Country superstar Toby Keith has filled out his summertime schedule behind last year's "American Ride," confirming dates and venues for more US concerts.The award-winning musician continues to support last year's "American Ride," which surfaced in October and marked the performer's 13th studio release. The effort's title track--the only song on the album that Keith did not write--served as its lead single, landing the musician his 19th No. 1 hit on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart.
In October, Keith received the Songwriter/Artist of the Decade Award from the Nashville Songwriters Association International.
"If I am ever in a position to be in the Songwriters Hall of Fame, it won't mean any more than this," Keith explained in an interview BPD had with him last fall. "Any award given to me by songwriters is the ultimate. I'm completely at a loss for words to tell you how big it is to me."
Earlier this month, Keith was nominated for Entertainer of the Year at the 45th annual Academy of Country Music Awards, which takes place in April in Las Vegas.
The musician has several awards already under his belt, including two American Music Awards for Favorite Country Male Artist (2003 and 2005) and two Academy of Country Music Awards for Entertainer of the Year (2002 and 2003), among others.
