Jamboree In The Hills Performance Is Biggest In 30 Years
(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) Singer, songwriter and venue-packing performer Toby Keith
has been voted Entertainer of the Year in the 2007 AboutCountryAwards on top
web destination About.com. And Keith backed up that online title with a
record-setting performance at Jamboree In The Hills.
Keith drew a whopping 48% of votes for the fan-voted About .com honor, more
than 68,000 all told. On the third night of the festival in Ohio, Toby drew
the largest crowd in the 30 year history of Jamoree In The Hills, the iconic
event that regularly draws more than 100,000 music fans over four days.
According the the Charleston (WV) Daily Mail, Toby backed up that quantity
with quality, giving attendees a top notch performance, saying "Keith's
powerful two-hour-plus performance helped draw the largest crowd to a
Saturday session."
As the Morristown, OH show proves, Keith's concerts continue to be among the
top drawing live events in the nation. His current single "Love Me If You
Can" continues its march to the top of the charts. And his exclusive
performance and interview for A&E's Private Sessions premieres on the
network this Sunday, August 5th (check local listings for airtimes).
Big Dog Daddy debuted at No. 1 overall on the strength of smash radio single
"High Maintenance Woman." Keith serves as producer, writer, vocalist and
background vocalist on the acclaimed album, released on his own Show Dog
Nashville label.
His second release on Show Dog, BDD is his third to debut at No. 1 overall
and fifth to top the Country sales chart. His Ford Trucks-sponsored Big Dog
Daddy Tour runs through late September.
