Keith Urban Joins CCMF 2016 Lineup!

Music superstar Keith Urban, set to take the stage at the Southeast’s premier music fest. 

Only days after achieving his 19th No.1 hit-single, “John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16”, Carolina Country Music Fest (CCMF), in conjunction with Full House Productions (FHP) and Visit Myrtle Beach, announce Keith Urban as the next headlining artist to take the stage on the shores of Myrtle Beach, S.C. during its second annual country music extravaganza, June 10-12, 2016. 

Urban, who is fast at work on his upcoming, untitled album, took the country music world by storm in 1999 with his self-titled debut album. His seventh and most recent studio album, “FUSE”, was released in 2013. The album is his fourth No.1, marking the first time a male country music artist has debuted at the top of the all-genre charts in the United States, Canada and Australia.

Urban’s new single, “Break On Me”, was just released to country radio. If history is an indication, it will eventually be added to his list of hit singles.

The Capitol Records Nashville recording artist, a four-time GRAMMY® Award winner, has received eight Academy of Country Music Awards, including recognition in the Male Vocalist of the Year and Male Entertainer of the Year categories, and six Country Music Association (CMA) Awards, including the Horizon Award in 2001, which distinguished him as a talented country music artist with a promising future.  Urban is also the only country music artist to serve as a judge on TV’s musical talent competition, “American Idol”, and will return as one of three members of the critically-acclaimed judging panel for its 15th and final season.

“Carolina Country Music Fest is excited to present such an amazing entertainer,” said Bob Durkin, President of FHP. “Keith Urban is a multi-talented musician and a hugely popular TV personality.  This year we are taking CCMF to the next level, and this Keith Urban announcement does just that,” continued Durkin. 

Additional headlining artists are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
