KEITH URBAN LIGHTS THE FUSE IN NASHVILLE.
Nashville, TN – In anticipation of the release of his new album on Tuesday (September 10th), Keith Urban lit the “Fuse” Friday night (September 6th) in Nashville.  He kicked it off with a 45-minute set for ticket winners and industry folks at the Cumberland Park next to the river and the Titans stadium. He performed such hits as “Long Hot Summer,” “Sweet Thing” and “Somebody Like You,” as well as cuts such as “Good Thing” and “Cop Car.” He also brought out a surpise guest, Eric Church, who also is his duet partner on Fuse‘s “Raise ‘Em Up.” 

The Cumberland Park show was taped for a live webcast as part of Yahoo! Music’s Ram Country Live! series with an viewing in Times Square. The series is also expected to rerun September 25th.

Next, Keith made appearances at three h honky-tonks on Lower Broad, including Legends, Tootsies and The Stage where he performed some hits and some cuts from his forthcoming album at each of the three clubs. At Tootsies Orchid Lounge, he was joined by rocker Steven Tyler on the Aerosmith hit, “Walk This Way.”
