[edit] Biography

Urban was born in Whangarei, North Island, New Zealand. Before he turned two years old his family moved to Australia. By age seven, Urban was already thinking about emigrating to America and making his mark in Nashville. He began learning guitar at age six and began winning talent contests by age eight. By 12 he was booking his band in local clubs, and at 15 he quit school to hit the road. In 1990, Urban signed with EMI in Australia and recorded his first solo album, which charted four No. 1 country hits in Australia. In 1992, he moved to Nashville to pursue the largest country music market in the world. Originally the front man for The Ranch, a three-piece group that released one album in 1997 to critical acclaim, Urban disbanded the group to pursue a solo career.

In the late 90s Urban battled cocaine[1] addiction. After reaching a personal nadir in 1998, he became determined to give up the habit and checked into Cumberland Heights, a treatment center in Nashville. After cleaning up, Urban released his self-titled American debut in 2000, which produced three top 5 hits and secured for him the Top New Male Vocalist Award at the 2001 Academy of Country Music Awards. Widely regarded for his guitar skills, he has performed as a session musician on albums such as Garth Brooks' Double Live and the Dixie Chicks' Fly.

In a bid for publicity, he appeared semi-nude in photos accompanying an interview for Playgirl magazine and on the cover of the April 2001 issue. This became the magazine's readers' most requested issue.

Urban released Golden Road in 2002, and the success of the single "Somebody Like You" sent his career into high gear. The single spent nine consecutive weeks at the top of the charts, remaining at No. 1 longer than any other country artist in 2002. Three other singles were released: two went to No. 1 and the third was No. 3. The album went platinum in every country where it was released and is triple platinum in the United States. In 2004 Be Here was released and nominated for best country album at the Grammy Awards and at the Academy of Country Music Awards. Out of the five singles released from Be Here, three went No. 1, and two to No. 2. In 2006 the album went triple platinum in the U.S. Urban has also released Days Go By, a greatest hits collection, in Europe. With a career total of 15 singles released, seven singles went to No. 1, two to No.2, two to No.3, one to No. 4, one to No. 6, one to No.18 and his current single "Stupid Boy" is at #21.

Touring as a supporting act for renowned country acts Brooks & Dunn and Kenny Chesney honed Urban's skills and stage-craft. Country video channel CMT signed on as the title sponsor of Urban's first headlining arena tour titled Keith Urban Be Here '04. Urban continued his meteoric rise to fame in 2005 with a very successful tour with Katrina Elam called Alive in '05. He performed in the Live 8 Philadelphia concert on July 2, 2005 and had been chosen by The Gap to appear alongside seven other musical stars in their "Favorites" campaign. He was named the 2005 CMA's Entertainer of the Year. He released a DVD in late September 2005 entitled Livin' Right Now, recorded in at the Wiltern Theater in California in December 2004. Urban has recently performed "Better Life" on the CMA Awards and "You'll Think of Me" on the American Music Awards. He also performed at the Grammys playing "You'll Think of Me" and "The Lucky One" with Faith Hill. At the 2006 ACM Awards Urban performed "Tonight I Wanna Cry" and played guitar for Brooks & Dunn's song "Believe."

On Monday August 21, 2006 he made history when his new single "Once in a Lifetime" became the highest-debuting country single (#17) in the 62-year history of Billboard's country charts. The record was formerly held by Garth Brooks' "Good Ride Cowboy", which debuted at #18 and Eddie Rabbitt's "Every Which Way But Loose". "Good Ride Cowboy" was the highest in the BDS era (1991-present).

On 19 October 2006 Urban checked himself into a rehabilitation center for alcohol abuse. He issued a press release about addressing his challenge, noting his gratitude for the "support and the unwavering strength of my wife, family and friends" and adding that he felt "calm and optimistic about the future and with finally coming to terms with the reality of my condition." [2] Due to this fact, he had cancelled his appearances on Rove Live, the 2006 ARIA Awards and the 2006 CMA Awards.

[edit] Personal life

In 1992, Urban dated veterinary technician Laura Sigler. The pair shared an on and off relationship for eight years. He proposed to Sigler in 2001, but the pair broke up in 2002.

Urban then dated former supermodel Niki Taylor on and off for three years until they broke up in 2005.

Urban and Nicole Kidman met in January 2005 and married in Sydney on June 25, 2006.
