Keith Urban Stages Drive-In Concert for Frontline Healthcare Workers: 'We Say Thank You'

Keith Urban has found his own way of thanking the workers on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic.

The country star staged a drive-in concert Thursday evening for first responders. The hour-long private show was held at the Stardust Drive-In Theatre outside of Nashville, Tennessee.

“To all of you guys here tonight, for everything that you’ve done, and continue to do, to all of your families, we say thank you — this concert is for all of you,” Urban, 52, said as he took the stage, according to a news release.




Kidman, 52, shared clips from the recent concert as well as a photo of her standing in front of the stage before Urban began playing.

“@KeithUrban just had to play!!” she captioned the Instagram post. “Isolating with live music at last night’s first #UrbanUnderground drive-in gig for the incredible #frontline workers at @VanderbiltHealth ❤️ xx”

Kidman, whose mother was a nurse, has been vocal about thanking healthcare workers during the pandemic.

“I’m the daughter of a nurse; I’ve seen a nurse in action my whole life — I used to hang out at the hospital when I was a little girl,” she said in an Instagram video in early April. “So to now be able to say thank you to all of you for your bravery and your selflessness and what you are doing, particularly during this time, is so important.”

The Big Little Lies star added: “We recognize you, and we love you. Thank you.”
