<p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you have ever seen <strong><a href="https://countrymusicontour.com/keith-urban-world-tour-tickets-and-details/">Keith Urban live</a></strong>, you already know this record was inevitable. Today, the four-time GRAMMY Award winner officially released <em>HIGH AND A(LIVE)</em>, his first full-length live album, and it captures exactly why his concerts hit the way they do.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Recorded during his recently completed <strong><a href="https://countrymusicontour.com/keith-urban-world-tour-tickets-and-details/">HIGH AND ALIVE WORLD TOUR</a></strong>, the album documents the full arc of a <a title="Keith Urban" href="https://stubhub.prf.hn/click/camref:1100ljXyr/pubref:WPSKUrban/ar:CMNBAutoLink/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fkeith-urban-tickets%2F">Keith Urban</a> show. Loud guitars. Massive singalongs. That feeling in the crowd where everyone forgets whatever stress they walked in with. It is 20 songs across two hours that sound like a band firing on all cylinders in front of fans who know every word.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Urban has always said the stage is where he feels most alive, and this record proves it. As he put it himself, “Playing live is what I live to do. Looking out from a stage and seeing people singing, forgetting about all the stress in their lives, cutting loose, and feeling ALIVE, that’s what it’s about for me.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The setlist pulls heavily from across his catalog, including 11 of his 24 No. 1 singles. Fans will hear “Somebody Like You,” “Blue Ain’t Your Color,” “Wasted Time,” and “One Too Many,” alongside newer material from his album <em>HIGH</em>. There are also moments longtime fans will appreciate, like an acoustic take on “You’ll Think Of Me,” a mashup of “Kiss A Girl” and “Who Wouldn’t Wanna Be Me,” and a crowd-pleasing cover of New Radicals’ “You Get What You Give,” which now has an official live video out as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">What makes <em>HIGH AND A(LIVE)</em> work is that it does not feel polished down to the bone. You can hear the crowd. You can hear the band pushing the tempo. You can hear why Urban waited until now to release a live album. This one feels earned.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The timing also makes sense. Urban is gearing up to return to the UK to headline C2C Festival 2026, marking his first UK performances since his sold-out THE SPEED OF NOW World Tour run in 2022. The last time he headlined C2C back in 2019, he played to more than 80,000 fans across three nights, and expectations are already high for his return.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">C2C Festival 2026 runs March 13 through 15 across London, Glasgow, and Belfast, with tickets on sale now.</p>
