Keith Urban
Country's resident guitar hero — a Nashville A-lister by way of Australia who plays like a rock headliner with a Telecaster.
Keith Urban was born in Whangārei, New Zealand, and raised in Queensland, Australia, where he began performing as a child and worked as a country musician before moving to Nashville. He first recorded there with the band The Ranch in the mid-1990s, then launched a solo career that made him one of the most consistently played artists in mainstream country.
He is known for songs including "Somebody Like You" and "Blue Ain't Your Color," and for his guitar playing, which is more prominent in his arrangements and live shows than is typical for the format. He has won multiple Grammy Awards and served as a judge on American Idol and The Voice Australia.
