Keith Urban's New Album "Get Closer"

Mark your calendars.....The release of the first single off Keith Urban's new album is set for September 13. The new release is titled "Put You in a Song". The new album is called "Get Closer" and will be released November 16. "Put You in a Song" is co-written by  Sarah Buxton ("Stupid Boy") and Jedd Hughes, a former guitarist for Mr. Urban.

In the press release for the new single Keith talks about the inspiration for the first single:
 
On September 13th, Keith will release his debut single “Put You In A Song,” from his forthcoming Tuesday, November 16th album release Get Closer. “Put You In A Song” was co-written by Keith, Sarah Buxton and Jedd Hughes and is co-produced by Dann Huff and Urban. 
“I’ve always loved songs about ‘the guy in love with the unattainable girl’, said Keith of “Put You In A Song.  “And the idea that the only chance that this poor guy is ever going to have to get close to the object of his affection is to put her in a song, just struck me.  That way he’d be able to take her with him everywhere he goes...day and night.”
Keith added, “On my way to write with Jedd (Hughes) and Sarah (Buxton), I stopped by this music shop and bought a bouzouki. I got it out of the case, we got a great groove going on the drum machine, I started playing the opening riff and the song just took off.”
Get Closer follows Keith’s Billboard Top 200 Album Chart #1 Defying Gravity, which produced two #1 singles including "Only You Can Love Me This Way" and “Sweet Thing,” for which Keith won his third Grammy Award (Best Male Country Vocal Performance).
Urban is currently in the studio in Nashville, putting the finishing touches on Get Closer.
