Toby Keith just released details on his upcoming "Oklahoma Twister Relief Concert" to benefit everyone that was affected by the deadly tornadoes that hit Oklahoma in May. Toby won't be alone in this fundraising effort, he'll be joined by a host of superstar friends like Garth Brooks, Willie Nelson, Trisha Yearwood and Ronnie Dunn.

The Concert is slated for July 6th, 2013 on the University of Oklahoma campus in Norman, Oklahoma. Tickets go on sale June 21st and will are only $25. Since Toby Keith himself was raised in Moore, Oklahoma and he now resides in Norman, Oklahoma he said he felt like he had to do something to help.

"I grew up in Moore, I live in Norman and I've got lots of family and friends who were directly affected," Keith said. Moore, Okla. was the city hardest hit by the storm, and nearby Norman is where the concert will be held. "I know these folks, and they're resilient, but we're going to keep helping them any way we can. I'm proud to get together with some others from around here who are just as committed as I am to supporting these communities."

Garth said "I told Toby, we were at your service for whatever you chose to do, and that's it is an honor to get to be a part of this healing process." Willie and Ronnie are friends of Toby and are extremely happy to help out. Updates and any additions to the lineup for the "Oklahoma Twister Relief Concert" will be posted online at Toby Keith.com.
