Peso in My Pocket is the nineteenth studio album by American country music artist Toby Keith. It was released on October 15, 2021 by Show Dog-Universal Music.
Content
The album is Keith's first new studio album since 35 MPH Town in 2015. He began writing for the album at a house he owns in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico during the COVID-19 pandemic. After receiving calls for new music from "radio honchos", he decided to compile a new album. The album's lead single is "Old School", co-written by country singer Maren Morris and her husband, Ryan Hurd.[2]
Critical reception
The album received four out of five stars from AllMusic, whose reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote that "Lively, funny, and brawny in a way he hasn't been since his hot streak in the 2000s, Peso in My Pocket is filled with songs so lean that it takes a moment to realize that Keith covers a lot of musical ground here."[1]
