Keith gets the Grammy

Whangarei-born country music sensation, Keith Urban, has won his first Grammy Award. Urban was named best male country vocal performer ahead of Toby Keith, Willie Nelson, George Jones, Delbert McClinton and Brad Paisley. This follows his best entertainer and male vocalist trophies at last year’s Country Music Awards. Urban’s Grammy win was nearly overshadowed by his date to the awards – actress Nicole Kidman, the first public appearance by the couple.
