Last month, Keith Urban released his new album High. The album debuted in the top ten on the US Top Country Albums chart, while in Australia, he topped the Australian Country Albums chart and peaked at #3 on the Top 50 ARIA Albums chart.
Urban also recently announced that he’ll return to Australia in August 2025 for a massive run of arena shows in support of High. For the tour, he’ll be joined by special guest Chase Matthew, who will perform his first-ever Australian shows.
In June, Urban said that High was born out of a “prior record,” revealing that he scrapped a previous project he found “musically limiting”.
Discussing the album, Urban explained, “When I’m writing a song, or when I’m in the studio recording it, or even when it’s coming to life on the stage, it’s the same feeling of being ‘in the flow.’ It’s timeless, weightless - and I feel euphoric - I feel HIGH.”
