Keith Urban

It's week two of American Idol auctions, last night from Denver, Colorado. Forty singers got the golden 'Hollywood' ticket, but for me only a few really stood out.

Keith Urban is a bit of a musical anomaly. While the country community firmly embraces the singer and guitarist, there are critics that consider him both a pop and a rock artist. He's a lot of things to a lot of music fans, but terms, categories and definitions don't carry much weight for Urban and he isn't sitting around thinking about how he should be labeling himself. For him, it's a state of m

Season XIII of American Idol continued last night with more auditions from Austin, Texas and San Francisco, California. Here's a look at some of the auditions from last night and my comments.

The theme for this season of American Idol is 'a new start'. The show has the new panel of judges with Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr., the show also has a new slogan: 'This is your story America, this is your show'. It seems like American Idol is focusing more or the talent and less on bad performances and drama with the judges.

Keith Urban and his fellow Season 13 'American Idol' judges added to their very busy week when they dropped by 'Ellen' to discuss all the fun they've been having and how big of fans they are of each other.

Keith Urban sure knows how to say thanks! Over the weekend, the Aussie flew 10 of his biggest fans to Chicago for a full weekend of fun and admission into his exclusive 100 Club.

It looks like Season 13 of 'American Idol' is going to be a good one, especially after all of last year's over-the-top drama among the panelists. Keith Urban is the only returning judge in 2014 and he seems to be enjoying himself immensely, since he is having loads of fun in this spot for the new season, kicking off Jan. 15 on Fox.

2013 was a great year for country albums! Women may not have dominated the charts, but they produced some of the best LPs of the year. Ashley Monroe, Kacey Musgraves and Kellie Pickler all recorded projects that made our list of the Top 10 of 2013. Now, it’s time for fans to decide who their choice for No. 1 is.

For some, it comes naturally. For others, it comes with a little help and a $30 million necklace. OK, Carrie Underwood looked great at the Grammys even without the jewels, and her wardrobe choices in 2013 made her an easy pick for nomination in the Best Dressed category at the 2014 Taste of Country Awards. It's up to fans to decide who has the best style.

'American Idol' will hit the air for its 13th season on Jan. 15, and along with the new contestants comes a new panel of judges.

The nominees for Live Act of the Year aren't just your usual suspects. New artists like Florida Georgia Line make the ballot, while first-time headliners like Luke Bryan and Eric Church look for fan votes against mainstays like Brad Paisley and Jason Aldean. George Strait may be the sentimental favorite, as he finished the first year of a two-year plan to retire from the road. Vote for your favori

As we welcome 2014, there is a lot of great country music to look forward to. Here's just a sample of what new music is coming up early in 2014.

The seeds have been sown. After performing a unique version of Bill Withers' 'Ain't No Sunshine' at the 'Grammy Nominations Concert Live!!' on Dec. 6, Keith Urban and Miguel are both extremely keen on working together again, beyond that one-off.

Here’s a video of Keith Urban singing ‘All Out of Love’ on a new faces show in Melbourne, Australia in 1983. Keith won the ‘encouragement' award for his performance.

As 2013 draws to a close, it's obvious that it was a good year for country superstar Keith Urban. He reviews the highs of the year in this photo recap, provided exclusively to Taste of Country.

Keith Urban's 'Fuse' album is full of creative risks that fall back on strong songwriting and unique perspective. A song about falling in love in the back of a police car? That's never been done before. In 'Cop Car,' the superstar finds a way to make his narrative relatable to even the most law-abiding romantic.
