Toby Keith is hoping to be on the “road again soon.”
The 61-year-old country musician is “feeling good” amid his stomach cancer battle.
Keith’s representatives told Fox News Digital on Tuesday that he’s “feeling good” and they “are anticipating Toby will be on the road again soon” after more than a year hiatus from the stage.

“I’ve got more wind,” he told the outlet. “And I’m thinking about bringing the band in and setting up, playing two or three days somewhere just to see if I can get through two hours.”
“Last fall I was diagnosed with stomach cancer,” he wrote in June 2022.

“I’ve spent the last 6 months receiving chemo, radiation and surgery. So far, so good. I need time to breathe, recover and relax.”
He added: “I am looking forward to spending this time with my family. But I will see the fans sooner than later. I can’t wait.”
Keith is a longtime advocate for families facing cancer diagnoses, and established the Toby Keith Foundation in 2006 “to encourage the health and happiness of pediatric cancer patients.”
He recently celebrated his 19th annual “Toby Keith & Friends Golf Classic,” which raised a record-breaking $1.8 million.
