Keith Urban to perform in Fort Worth as part of Taylor Sheridan’s music competition series
Keith Urban will rock Fort Worth this weekend as part of a new Taylor Sheridan series.
Last fall, CBS announced a new singing competition series called “The Road” from executive producers Blake Shelton, Lee Metzger, David Glasser and Sheridan. The series, which will premiere this fall, follows emerging musicians as they open for a headlining superstar at venues across the country.
Urban was announced as the show’s headlining superstar this week.
“I spent a lot of my underage life playing in some seedy pubs, sometimes just for the bartender,” Urban said in a press release. “So I love the idea of throwing artists into a real-world environment to find out if they are artists.”
“The Road” contestants and Urban will play at several venues across the country in the next few weeks, including a couple in North Texas.
The first stop on trip will be at Fort Worth’s Tannahill’s Tavern & Music Hall on Sunday, March 2. Tickets are already sold out for the Fort Worth concert.
Next up, is a show at The Factory in Dallas on March 5. Tickets have not gone live yet, but whenever they do, fans can secure them here.
Find the full list of shows for “The Road” below:
- March 2- Tannahill’s Tavern & Music Hall in Fort Worth
- March 5- The Factory in Dallas
- March 9- Oklahoma Ranch in Oklahoma City
- March 12- Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa
- March 24- Minglewood Hall in Memphis
- March 28- Marathon Music Works in Nashville

“The Road” will offer viewers a backstage pass into the “gritty and unforgiving life of a touring artist,” according to CBS.
At each show, competitors will open for Urban and the audience will have the opportunity to influence which musicians will continue on the tour and move to the next city. The full list of competitors has not been announced yet.
“For me, touring has always been my first love,” Urban said. “It’s where the rubber meets the road. But it’s the only road to take if you want to be a performer.”
“The Road” will premiere this fall on CBS.
