"We made it!," Urban said minutes after taking to the stage for the premiere of "THE SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR" at the MIDFLORIDA Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa. "Am I a bit nervous? Just a little! But, I've never been more excited to see so many people in one place!"

It's been nearly four years since Keith Urban has toured the United States, and if his concerts over the weekend in Tampa and West Palm Beach are any indication, this is going to be one tour not to miss. From the first second that Urban took the stage, it was as if he was shot from a cannon.

Featured in the hit-filled, nearly two and half hour show are 20+ songs - some new, some unexpected, some never performed live and a few specially reworked songs for "THE SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR." From start to finish the show moved at breakneck speed, a non-stop, spontaneous party with the crowd riding along.

The following night's show in West Palm Beach was delayed well over an hour due to storms in the area, which also forced the cancellation of a night of rehearsals in Tampa. But Urban was undeterred, taking the stage and playing well past curfew to the delight of the sold-out crowd.

In addition, and in celebration of Urban's return to the road, comes the release of "You'll Think of Me." The emotionally-charged, live version is being made available through all streaming platforms in celebration of the North America kick off to "THE SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR."

The tour, which launched in the U.K. last month to rave reviews, features 3x GRAMMY© nominee and special guest Ingrid Andress. "THE SPEED OF NOW WORLD TOUR" rolls onward to Toronto with two sold-out shows on July 8th and 9th. For information on where to get tickets go to here.
