13 Number Ones is a brand-new compilation album featuring “some of his most iconic songs released between 1995-2005.” Every track on this album was a staple at Keith’s live shows, and nearly all were performed at Toby Keith: American Icon, a tribute concert for the late legend.
Toby Keith: American Icon was filmed on July 29 in front of a live audience at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. It will air on NBC on Wednesday, August 28 at 9pm ET/PT. The special featured performances from his daughter Krystal Keith, Carrie Underwood, Jelly Roll, Trace Adkins, Luke Bryan, Tyler Hubbard, Parker McCollum, Darius Rucker, Lainey Wilson, Jamey Johnson, and more.

The second new album is a re-issue of Keith’s very first Christmas album, Christmas to Christmas.
Keith originally released Christmas to Christmas in 1995 and he was praised for not including traditional Christmas songs, instead writing four new ones himself, and covering lesser known holiday tunes. This new release of Christmas to Christmas will be “remastered for all formats,” including vinyl for the first time. The vinyl for this album will be a transparent green color.
The vinyl will include a bonus track of Keith’s cover of Roger Miller’s “Old Toy Trains.”
