The special is slated to premiere on TBS on Friday, Oct. 16, at 10 p.m. (ET/PT), in the midst of the network's Major League Baseball postseason coverage.

TBS's presentation of Neighborhood Sessions featuring Toby Keith highlights several of the award-winning singer-songwriter's biggest hits, including material from his upcoming album, 35 mph Town. The neighbors featured in the special are just a few of the extraordinary individuals who lift up this Oklahoma community and affect the lives of each person they reach in positive ways, proving that Good Neighbors Inspire Greatness(R). Neighborhood Sessions featuring Toby Keith comes to TBS from State Farm with the help of Translation, and is produced by Radical Media.

Toby Keith, a recent inductee into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, ranks among the biggest hit makers of his era. From his first #1 smash, "Should've Been A Cowboy" to "How Do You Like Me Now?!," "Courtesy of The Red, White And Blue (The Angry American)" and "I Love This Bar," his monumental success has produced 26 #1 singles as a songwriter and 32 #1 singles as an artist in 22 years. Keith's albums have sold more than 40 million copies, and his tours have drawn more than one million fans each year for the last 14 years. He is a three-time BMI Country Songwriter/Artist of the Year and has been honored with the Nashville Songwriters Association International's Songwriter/Artist of the Decade distinction as well as the National Music Publishers Association's Songwriter Icon Award. He has also earned four American Music Awards and 10 Academy of Country Music Awards, among countless other accolades. In 2009, Billboard named Keith Country Artist and Songwriter of the Decade.

Keith's most rewarding experiences come from giving back.
