Keith Urban has confirmed plans for a new album and tour this year. The new release will be titled Graffiti U and the supporting run is set to kick off on June 15 in St. Louis, Missouri. He opened up about the album’s unusual name during a recent interview with Rolling Stone. “I was toying with the letter ‘U,'” he tells Rolling Stone Country. “Obviously it’s the first letter of my last name, but I liked that when you say it, it’s also the word ‘You.’ For me, that’s the listener, that’s the audience.” He adds: “The sound of words is a big thing to me – Ripcord was like that, Fuse was like that. Fuse and Ripcord denoted a certain kind of energy in the word to me,” he says. “‘Graffiti’ to me felt very uninhibited, artistic, liberated expression. ‘Graffiti’ to me is a blank canvas and pure artistic expression upon that.” Keith Urban Tour Dates: Jun 15 — St. Louis, MO @ Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre Jun 16 — Indianapolis, IN @ Ruoff Home Mortage Music Center Jun 22 — Clarkston, MI @ DTE Energy Music Theatre Jun 23 — Pittsburgh, PA @ KeyBank Pavilion Jun 27 — Saratoga Springs, NY @ Saratoga Performing Arts Center Jun 29 — Toronto, ON @ Budweiser Stage Jun 30 — Toronto, ON @ Budweiser Stage Jul 5 — Gilford, NH @ Bank of NH Pavilion Jul 6 — Gilford, NH @ Bank of NH Pavilion Jul 8 — Canandaigua, NY @ CMAC Jul 13 — Salt Lake City, UT @ USANA Amphitheatre Jul 14 — Denver, CO Fiddler’s @ Green Amphitheatre Jul 15 — Albuquerque, NM @ Isleta Amphitheater Jul 20 — Mountain View, CA @ Shoreline Amphitheatre Jul 21 — Lake Tahoe, NV @ Lake Tahoe Outdoor Arena at Harveys Jul 22 — Lake Tahoe, NV @ Lake Tahoe Outdoor Arena at Harveys Jul 27 — Raleigh, NC @ Coastal Credit Union Music Park at Walnut Creek Jul 28 — Charlotte, NC @ PNC Music Pavilion Jul 29 — Alpharetta, GA @ Verizon Amphitheatre Aug 3 — Philadelphia, PA @ BB&T Pavilion Aug 4 — Mansfield, MA @ Xfinity Center Aug 5 — Bangor, ME @ Darling’s Waterfront Pavilion Aug 10 — Cleveland, OH @ Blossom Music Center Aug 11 — Bristow, VA @ Jiffy Lube Live Aug 12 — Virginia Beach, VA @ Veterans United Home Loans Amphitheater Aug 15 — Rogers, AR @ Walmart AMP Aug 17 — Kansas City, MO @ Sprint Center Aug 18 — Chicago, IL @ Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre Aug 19 — Cincinnati, OH @ Riverbend Music Center Aug 24 — Nashville, TN @ Bridgestone Arena Aug 25 — Orange Beach, AL @ The Wharf Amphitheater Aug 26 — Tuscaloosa, AL @ Tuscaloosa Amphitheater Sept 7 — Uncasville, CT @ Mohegan Sun Arena Sept 8 — Uncasville, CT @ Mohegan Sun Arena Sept 14 — Ottawa, ON @ Canadian Tire Centre Sept 15 — London, ON @ Budweiser Gardens Sept 19 — Winnipeg, MB @ Bell MTS Place Sept 21 — Saskatoon, SK @ SaskTel Centre Sept 22 — Edmonton, AB @ Rogers Place Sept 23 — Calgary, AB @ ScotiaBank Saddledome Sept 25 — Vancouver, BC Rogers Arena Sept 27 — Eugene, OR @ Matthew Knight Arena Sept 28 — Boise, ID @ Taco Bell Arena Sept 29 — Missoula, MT @ Adams Center Oct 4 — Phoenix, AZ @ Ak-Chin Pavilion Oct 5 — Laughlin, NV @ Laughlin Event Center Oct 12 — Peoria, IL @ Peoria Civic Center Oct 13 — Minneapolis, MN @ Target Center Oct 14 — Grand Forks, ND @ Ralph Engelstad Arena Oct 18 — Toledo, OH @ Huntington Center Oct 19 — Grand Rapids, MI @ Van Andel Arena Oct 20 — Louisville, KY @ KFC Yum!
