After finding success in his home country of Australia, Keith Urban broke into the U.S. country charts in 1999 with his eponymous album. A quarter of a century later, the New Zealand-born artist has racked up 15 ACM Awards, 13 CMAs, and four Grammys. Still going strong at 57, Urban dropped his 12th studio album, High, in September 2024. On Tuesday (Dec. 31), the “Messed Up As Me” singer helped country music fans everywhere bid farewell to 2024 and welcome 2025.

Go Keith Urban,” another viewer added.
The “Blue Ain’t Your Color” singer is accompanied by some pretty dazzling company on the last night of 2024.

Other acts included Luke Bryan, Chris Stapleton, Lainey Wilson, Luke Combs, Eric Church, Miranda Lambert, Post Malone, Parker McCollum and Tyler Hubbard.

Alana Springsteen Is Joining Keith Urban on Tour
Alana Springsteen, the “taylor did” singer will team up with the country music legend next year on his his “HIGH AND ALIVE WORLD TOUR.” The tour, Urban’s first in three years, kicks off May 22 in Alabama.
The “Days Go By” hitmaker has boldly promised to “make this tour the best night of your life!”

Lots of hits, new songs, things we won’t even think about until we’re onstage—and loads of guitar.”
