Australia is scheduled to be the first stop on Keith Urban’s Get Closer 2011 World Tour which will see the multi-platinum selling artist perform to hundreds of thousands of fans in many countries across the globe all beginning here on Friday April 8, with the multi-platinum selling Lady Antebellum joining Urban for the Australian tour as the opening act.

Get Closer 2011 World Tour will have an all-new stage production that will feature Urban’s uniquely hard-charging, captivating live performances; concert events that critics have hailed as “one of the best reasons in the world to attend a live concert”, and will not only include songs from Urban’s extraordinary catalogue of hits, including ‘Better Life’, ‘You’ll Think Of Me’, ‘Days Go By’, ‘Somebody Like You’ and ‘Sweet Thing’, but will feature the debut of music from his sixth studio album Get Closer, including his current single ‘Long Hot Summer’ and first single ‘Put You In A Song’.

Through the years Urban’s spontaneity and captivating stage presence have resulted in one-of-a-kind concert experiences. Whether closing his shows with a thru-the-audience trek to a waiting taxi cab outside the arena or signing and giving away a guitar while performing atop a seat back somewhere in the stands, Urban has given his audiences what one critic described as “a show which you’d be hard-pressed to top in country or rock”.

Keith Urban and Lady Antebellum have previously toured together in the US but this is the first time Lady Antebellum has toured Australia.
