Early Life 

On October 26, 1967, Urban was born in Whangarei, New Zealand. He is Marienne and Robert Urbahn’s youngest child. Urban’s inspirations began to develop at a young age, mirroring his family’s love of folk music. His dad, who ran a grocery store, posted a sign for a guitar instructor in the doorway of his business. Urban began taking classes from his instructor, Sue McCarthy, and started competing locally and performing in a nearby theater group.

Urban participated in the Australian TV competition show New Faces in 1983. A few years later, he broke into the Australian folk music industry by regularly playing duets with Brisbane native Jenny Wilson on TV shows. They were presented with a Golden Guitar medal at the Bathurst Country Music Festival. Additionally, Urban frequently played on stage at Bald Hills’ Northside Country Music Club, where he participated.

First Break

Urban bagged a recording deal with EMI in Australia in 1990. In addition to touring with Slim Dusty from 1993 to 1994, Keith Urban recorded his self-titled first record in 1991. Interestingly, his first performance at the Grand Ole Opry was as Dusty’s backup singer. Urban relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, in 1992.

Urban’s self-titled American new album was published in 1999. He became the first New Zealand artist to enter the Top 10 on the US songs chart when it peaked at No. 4 and reached No. His first No. 1 single, “But for the Grace of God,” was its follow-up.

“Life is a balance of holding on and letting go.”
