Keith Urban touched down in Sydney over the weekend for a short stop before moving onto Adelaide for a special performance.

The 46-year-old musician took to the stage at the Clipsal 500 V8 Supercars Championship Series in the South Australian capital city on Sunday.

The loud crowd at the racing event sure had Keith’s adrenalin pumping, reminding him why he loves his home country so much.

Following the performance the star tweeted, ‘ADELAIDE!!! You kept my heart racing allll nite - so happy to be back down under... 'Till next time – KU.’

The husband of Australian actress Nicole Kidman took a brief break from his overseas commitments as American Idol judge, to entertain home audiences.

 

He has been judging Idol since since 2012, following his departure from local reality talent show, The Voice Australia.

During his time on the popular series, Keith’s American fan following and musical family has grown.

Fellow judge Randy Jackson posted an Instagram photo of himself with the Australian country singer last week, with the caption ‘Yo @keithurban and I are starting a band! #idol.’

Whilst wife Nicole is in Hollywood for the Oscars on Sunday evening, Keith is keeping his focus on the music. 

He asked Twitter fans on Monday morning which songs from his new album, Fuse, were getting them ‘ready for the week.’

Keith will return to Australia for his national tour in June, playing across the nation at all major cities.

Gosh Susie B. you sound like a very sad person. Keith is a very giving and humble artist with a lot of great talent. Post a picture of yourself and let's critique it. I've got my own mind picture of what you probably look like from your mean post. Grow up.

Wonder if this munchkin will still have the same soppy hairstyle when he's in his 70's - it will be grey then so no need for the streaks.
