Keith Urban New Album
Keith has the album ready to be dropped, as he told correspondent Tracy Smith.
Stranded at home in quarantine this spring, Keith Urban had a tough time getting used to life as a traveling musician with nowhere to go. But as he told correspondent Tracy Smith, he successfully pivoted to playing music during a pandemic, from holding a benefit concert for frontline workers at a Nashville drive-in, to finishing his new album, “The Speed of Now, Part 1,” in which he recognizes the value of – for once – slowing down.
The Speed of Now Album Date
The album will be published on September 18, 2020
Why he called his new album The Speed Of Now ?
It’s a title that comments on the increasingly fast pace of life — something brought into sharp relief by lockdown.
“I wouldn’t have minded everybody to slow down — but in some other way. Anything but this pandemic,” he says.
“The title actually came to me last year when I did a couple of the C2C (Country To Country) shows. I was travelling around and started to notice people everywhere were moving faster. The album title is a dark, comedic dig at the absurdity of that.”
Keith Urban live at his home in Australia where he and superstar actress wife Nicole Kidman and their two daughters Sunday, 11, and Faith, nine, have been based for the past few weeks following lockdown at their home in Nashville.
