Keith Urban Named Featured Speaker For CRS 2015
Keith Urban has been announced as a featured speaker for the 2015 Country Radio Seminar. Keith Urban: Being Present, is slated for Friday, Feb. 27, 2015 at 3 p.m. during the annual convention.
“This will be a definitive ‘memorable moment’ for all of us this year: having this incredible talent address this most critical skill in today’s hectic professional business environment, with far reaching effect on one’s ability to communicate,” says CRS Executive Director, Bill Mayne. “Urban is one of the first artists to have literally broken down the separation that can exist even on the concert stage. Not only has he been leaving the stage, to join his audiences for years, he was the first artist that I’ve ever seen, whose stage literally bled into the crowd, with no barrier of any kind – no doubt entirely by design.”
Mayne continues, “Keith is one of the most impressive and successful artists of our time. There’s no doubt that both the musician and the man have set the standard for the way any artist’s relationship should be with his or her fans. His ability to connect on a human level whether in person or through his music is unprecedented. Radio air talent and programmers are unanimous when referring to Urban’s uncanny ability to connect with people. It is genuine, heartfelt and authentic. Through the years we have all seen how Keith conducts himself during backstage visits both with fans and industry personnel.”
