Keith Urban isn’t just touring in 2025—he’s thriving. The four-time Grammy winner launched his High and Alive tour with a fiery kickoff in Orange Beach, Alabama, channeling a fresh surge of energy and passion into every note. At 57, Urban says the stage still feels brand-new. “Everything is just very now,” he shared. “It’s a blank canvas.”
The tour supports his 11th U.S. studio album, High, which features the hit “Messed Up as Me” and surprises like covers of Post Malone and Morgan Wallen’s “I Had Some Help” and Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club.” It’s more than a setlist—it’s a playlist meant to make fans feel, as Urban puts it, “literally high and alive.”
Offstage, Urban is as devoted as ever to his family—celebrating 19 years with wife Nicole Kidman—and channeling his drive into new ventures. This fall, he headlines The Road, a new CBS competition series executive produced by Blake Shelton and Taylor Sheridan that throws aspiring singers straight into the touring grind.
Though he has no interest in acting—“Absolutely not,” he laughed—Urban’s creativity is cooking. With a new studio in Nashville and an endless appetite for music, Urban shows no signs of slowing down.
