Born and raised in Oklahoma, Keith grew up listening to Merle Haggard and Bob Willis, and after high school, played music in local honky-tonks while working in the oil fields. His big break came when a demo tape landed in the hands of a music producer who helped him sign his first major label deal. In 2001, the Academy of Country Music honored him with the coveted Male Vocalist of the Year title, and also named his 1999 release How Do You Like Me Now?! Album of the Year.
