5 Ways Keith Urban’s 2018 Graffiti U World Tour Elevates the Game
Keith Urban breaks out guitar tricks -- a short solo here, a small change in the recorded melody there -- with such ease, you sometimes don't even realize he's doing it until it's already happened. The country superstar is a pro, and he owns the stage effortlessly on his 2018 Graffiti U World Tour.
Urban delivered two-plus hours of music to a jam-packed crowd in Canandaigua, N.Y., on Sunday evening (July 8), bringing together classic hits, new material and even his very first No. 1 song. From his dual-stage setup to his talented band, everything about Urban's 2018 tour is high quality -- well worth the ringing in your ears the next day.
Read on for The Boot's take on how Urban elevates the live music game on his 2018 Graffiti U World Tour.
