Keith Urban played a special live pop-up concert for healthcare workers at a drive-in movie theater near Nashville last night.
The unannounced concert at the Stardust Drive-In in Watertown, Tennessee, was a special treat for the doctors, nurses and staff at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. An estimated 125 cars parked at the theater and people stayed at their cars and watched the hour-long show. Keith said he wanted to put on the show to “say thanks to the healthcare workers who are putting their lives on the line for us every day.”
He added, “performing in this environment, with everyone in their cars at a safe distance from one another, seems like an amazing opportunity for everybody to just let go and have fun. And I’m a musician, I have to play.”
