Zach Bryan Pays Emotional Tribute To Toby Keith With Powerful Performance

Zach Bryan blew the doors off with his tribute to Toby Keith.

The legendary country music icon recently passed away at the age of 62 after battling stomach cancer. His death is nothing short of tragic, and Keith's impact is obvious from the incredible stories and tributes that have rolled in since he died.

Emotions are high, and it's not hard to understand why. The world lost an icon, and not just any icon. Toby Keith helped carry America through some very tough times after 9/11.

There will never be another like him.

Zach Bryan honors Toby Keith.

Zach Bryan - one of the fastest rising names in music - was at an event in Las Vegas ahead of the Super Bowl, and he took a moment to honor Keith's life and legacy the best way anyone can:

By singing "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue."

It's an anthem about how badass America is and how this great country will always kill those who wish to bring harm to the land we call home.

Do yourself a favor by grabbing a beer, crack it open, raise a toast to Toby and watch Zach Bryan's absolutely electric and emotional tribute. 

I've sang "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue" so many times over the past week that I've truly lost count and it's driving my girlfriend nuts.

I'm not stopping, and millions of other fans feel the same way. His songs are flooding social media, people are putting them on repeat and crushing beers thinking about all the hits and great memories he gave fans.

Every beer this weekend is for Toby Keith. Every single one.

Toby Keith lived his life his own way, was a family man, a patriot and made some of the greatest country music songs ever released. It's still hard to believe he's gone, but it's also been incredible watching the tributes roll in.

There's no question this one from Zach Bryan is among the best.
