February 21, 2012 It's official. Keith Urban is a beach bum. It's always interesting to find out what your favorite country stars like to do with their spare time. I don't think Keith has had a lot of spare time lately, and he's missing the beach in Australia.
What can we say? When the DIY-laced, fashion-forward, recipe-stocked pin craze of Pinterest began, we never thought we’d be reporting that male country music stars would be getting in on the action. But Pinterest has taken on a new role of late, serving as just another social media outlet where artists can do what has become so vital these days: connect with their fans. Perhaps this is why New-Zealand born Aussie Keith Urban just added his name to the list of pinners you can follow with his new Pinterest page.
Keith Urban is one of 10 country stars on the ‘Act of Valor’ soundtrack, available for purchase on Feb. 21. His song ‘For You’ is the lead track on the album and is available to preview now at iTunes.
January 25, 2012 Not only is Keith Urban a great guitar player, singer, and songwriter, but, apparently, he's a good whistler, too! I'm not talking about walking down the street whistling a song... I'm taliking more in terms of a "coach's" or "referee's" whistle.

I know the title of this blog is pretty pedestrian, but if you read on, you'll find that it actually says it all. (no pun intended)
January 11, 2012 I can remember a time when putting a country song in a movie would have been unthinkable. My, how times have changed.
Keith Urban recently had surgery on his vocal chords to remove a polyp. It's been close to a month now that he was ordered to rest that voice and the next time to test it out will be in Austin!
October 24, 2011 I love all kinds of music, especially country music, but I really like the guitar slingers. These are the guys that, not only sing and write really well, they also play guitar like they're from another planet.

How do you intend to spend your next birthday? A party, maybe? Maybe a trip or just spending time with friends and family? It's another one of those things you don't think about, but if you're a country singer in the middle of a major tour, you can't just stop to celebrate your birthday.
In one of his many number one hits, Keith Urban sang about having a ‘Better Life.’
Last Friday, that’s exactly what he helped give one lucky fan and her family.
August 1, 2011 Every once in a while a new country artist comes along that you just like from the beginning. I liked Jake Owen from the first time I heard him.
Brad Paisley's newest record, This is Country Music, plays like a country rock mix tape curated and orchestrated by Paisley himself. It's packed with guest appearances from the likes of coiffed guitar acrobat Marty Stuart, classic rock crooner Don Henley and, of course, Paisley's go-to duet partner these days, Carrie Underwood. Plus, Clint Eastwood whistles the melody to the instrumental 'Eastwood.' If that sounds like the most awesome thing ever, well, what can we say?
Not that it's anything new for the 'Celebrity' singer - he's put together some great collaborations in his day. Check out our list of the five best Paisley duets of all time, and when you're done reading, head over to our Facebook page to enter for your chance to win a trip to West Palm Beach to see Paisley in concert - and meet him backstage.
