ABC/Image Group LAThis weekend, Morgan Evans is tagging along as his wife Kelsea Ballerini opens the Graffiti U World Tour for Keith Urban.  And it’s something Kelsea expects will happen as often as possible this summer.

“[Keith is] his favorite artist…” the “I Hate Love Songs” hitmaker explains. “He loves Keith Urban, as do I. And so, I have a feeling that I’ll be seeing him a lot this summer, and I don’t even know if it’s because of me, I think it might be because of Keith.”

“But either way, I’ll take it!” she laughs.

Kelsea’s a pretty big Keith Urban fan as well — she even says his hit “Stupid Boy” sparked her interest in country music. 

“Keith’s my favorite artist, especially in the format,” she tells ABC Radio. “He’s one of those artists that somehow reinvents himself with every record, but stays the same.”

“Not many people can do it,” Kelsea continues. “And it’s really fascinating to me how he walks that line of reinventing himself, but keeping that same heart that people just have loved from the beginning. And I’m really excited to watch that closely and really learn from that.”  

Tonight, Keith, Kelsea — and maybe even Morgan — will play the second of two nights at Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion in Gilford.
