KEITH URBANS “ESCAPE TOGETHER WORLD TOUR” TOGETHER WITH KC MASTERPIECE © AND KINGSFORD® TO OFFER FANS TRUE $20 TICKET

Keith Urban’s “Escape Together World Tour,” which is already expected to be one of the biggest concert events of the Summer, today announced the creation of a concert ticket that will cost fans only $20.00. At Urban’s insistence, select number of seats will be made available for all “Escape Together World Tour” dates*. In what is a truly unprecedented occurrence, especially for an arena tour, all per ticket transaction fees for the $20.00 ticket have been waived.

“It’s easy to see that people out there are hurting,” said Urban. “And if these ticket prices can help some of them to let loose, forget about their daily grind and enjoy a night of music, then that’s what we intend to give them and everyone else that comes out to our shows.”

Urban’s 2009 is already shaping up to be a big one. His current single “Sweet Thing” marks his 18th Top 5 single in the US and his 14th #1 in Canada. He will be performing live at the Super Bowl of car racing, the “Great American Race” – the Daytona 500 - at the Daytona International Speedway, which will be broadcast live Sunday, February 15th on the FOX Network. And March 31st will mark the release of his 6th studio album Defying Gravity.

“Escape Together” gets underway this May and fans are encouraged to stay tuned to their local Country radio station and/or to go to www.keithurban.net for play dates and ticket information.
