Tour buses and GRAFFITI U wrapped
trailers, twenty-two in all, and a crew
of ninety-three have hit the road, hauling enough cable to carry
electricity from Nashville to St. Louis and nearly forty guitars for the launch
of Keith Urban’s “GRAFFITI U WORLD TOUR
2018.”
A 23-song, two-hour plus set,
marks the four-time GRAMMY Award winner’s first world tour in more than two
years.
After only a few shows, fans have been treated to Urban’s now expected unexpected. His fast-paced party-like performances reveal an unrivalled triple threat entertainer. Vocalist, virtuoso guitarist and ever the showman, Urban’s connection to his fans always features spontaneous moments and “GRAFFITI U WORLD TOUR 2018” has been no exception.
He revealed that his opening
night featured guests, the innovative blues, Americana and rock duoLarkin
Poe, will accompany him on the tour through August, performing “Where the
Blacktop Ends.” In addition, Urban has not only made a phone call
to a fan’s friend (from the stage), he’s given an onstage pre-wedding first
dance performance of “Making Memories of Us” to a Detroit couple.
THANK YOU for having us this weekend, Detroit and Pittsburgh!!! ✨#GraffitiUWorldTour weekend 2 in the books! pic.twitter.com/ISpcXgCB2k— Keith Urban (@KeithUrban) 24 June 2018
It should come as no surprise
that critics are raving. Of his show in Indianapolis the Star said,
“Urban reached an undeniable peak of energy exchange between performer and
audience. He had the crowd hanging on every line…you’d be in decent shape if
you wagered on Urban in a guitar duel against any living player.”
The “GRAFFITI U WORLD TOUR
2018” debut in St. Louis led their Post-Dispatch to proclaim that, “Urban has
made (his show) memorable from opening to closing.” And Pittsburgh’s
Post-Gazette states that “(Urban) maintains a special inexplicable quality seen
in few musicians.”
it’s the biggest dream come true getting to sing and dance with you guys on the #GraffitiUWorldTour! New York and Canada, y’all ready for this week!? 💃🏼 https://t.co/wQ6EXaXLKb @KeithUrban pic.twitter.com/NEAFeW6new— Kelsea Ballerini (@KelseaBallerini) 26 June 2018
The 58-city, 63 show North

Urban on the U.S. leg as his supporting act and Lindsay Ell, who will accompany Urban on shows north of the border
