Keith Urban is thrilled to have Tyler Hubbard join the fall leg of his SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR (along with Ingrid Andress), beginning September 3rd at The Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, California.

The two had met at awards shows and the like over the years, and Keith was a big fan of Tyler and Florida Georgia Line, however it wasn’t until the last few years they got to know each other and really solidified their friendship when they sat together to write songs earlier this year.

“He and I got to write a song together quite a few months ago called ‘Dancin’ In The Country,’” says Keith. “I love Tyler. I love FGL. I love his voice. I love their songs, but I didn’t really know Tyler very well. I hadn’t gotten to spend a lot of time with him; sort of passing at awards shows, the best you get to know anybody. So that day getting to write with him and spend quite a few hours together, I just loved his vibe. I said, ‘Listen, Ingrid Andress and I are hitting the road. We’re gonna keep going through the fall. Would you want to come out and join us in the fall? It would be kind of fun to have the three of us out there.’ It was just one of those great timings where he was able to do it and he was going to have a lot of music ready to go, so I’m thrilled. I’m thrilled he said yes.”

Keith takes his tour, sans Tyler for now, to Rogers, Arkansas Thursday night (August 18th), St. Louis, Missouri on Friday (August 19th) and Des Moines, Iowa on Saturday (August 20th).

Keith is making his way up the country charts with “Brown Eyes Baby,” while Tyler is enjoying success with his single, “5 Foot 9.” Tyler releases his Dancin’ In The Country project on Friday (August 19th).
