Top 10 Summer Tours of 2009: Keith Urban

Industry heavy hitters gathered in BMI's Music Row lobby on March 16, 2009 to recognize a cluster of substantial milestones for superstar Keith Urban. In addition to celebrating the release of his new CD, Defying Gravity, BMI also toasted his 10th chart-topper "Sweet Thing," and his 11 song-deep list of BMI Million-Air award-winning compositions, which he either wrote or co-wrote. In addition to witnessing the awards presentation, guests enjoyed an intimate performance by Keith and his band. Photo by John Russell, courtesy of BMI.

Expected to be one of the biggest concert events of the summer, Keith Urban's Escape Together World Tour will kick off with two nights at the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut. At Keith's insistence, a select number of $20 seats will be made available for all tour dates. Keith welcomes a long list of opening acts on different dates: Sugarland, Taylor Swift, Jason Aldean, Lady Antebellum, Dierks Bentley, Zac Brown Band and Glen Campbell.
