Keith Urban has FINALLY announced the release date for his new album RipCORD.

The album will be Keith’s eighth studio album and has already produced two #1 singles.

The debut single from the project “John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16” reached the top of the charts nearly six months ago. The follow-up single “Break On Me” reached the #1 a few weeks ago.

Keith has now set Friday, May 6th as the release date for his new RipCORD album. That comes just a month before he launches his “RipCORD World Tour” with special guests Brett Eldredge and Maren Morris. That tour will make a stop here in Bloomington at US Cellular Coliseum Saturday, November 12th. Get complete concert and tickets details here.

Keith has even changed the cover photo and profile picture on his Facebook account to a simple black background with “5.6” in white numbers for the release date of the new album.

The good news, we have a release date for Keith Urban’s new RipCORD album.

The bad news, the May 6th date is still about a month and a half away.
