Toby Keith

Toby Keith‘s Oklahoma Twister Relief Concert has added performances by Sammy Hagar, Mel Tillis and John Anderson. They will join the previously announced lineup of Keith, Garth Brooks, Willie Nelson, Trisha Yearwood and Ronnie Dunn.

Additionally, Ford Trucks, Verizon, Wal-Mart, and Academy of Country Music Lifting Lives have all signed on as sponsors. Sponsorship donations and underwriting of the concert allows 100 percent of ticket proceeds to benefit the United Way of Central Oklahoma May Tornadoes Relief Fund, to aid recovery efforts for the tornadoes that recently devastated the town of Moore, Okla.

The concert will take place Saturday, July 6 at University of Oklahoma’s Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium in Norman, Okla., beginning at 3 p.m. Tickets go on sale Friday (June 21) at 10 a.m. Tickets are available by visiting ticketmaster.com, by calling 800-745-3000 or by visiting Homeland store locations. All seats are $25.

“When Toby asked me to come on board, I immediately said ‘Yes!'” said Hagar. “He’s put together a hell of a concert lineup to help raise funds for the brave and resilient people of Oklahoma. My job is going to be to help them take their minds off their problems and have some much needed, good old-fashioned fun.”
