Even before the official radio launch of her debut single, “My Church,” Maren Morris has already become one of country music’s most talked-about newcomers, and this past Monday, Maren was announced to be a special guest on Keith Urban’s upcoming RipCORD World Tour 2016, launching June 2nd. It’s an amazing opportunity for Maren, who feels that Keith really stepped up with a big vote of faith in inviting her on the tour. (AUDIO INFO BELOW)

• Tickets for Keith’s new tour go on sale in select markets as early as January 29th! For tour dates and more, visit Maren online at MarenMorris.com!
• In an appearance this week on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Keith talked about having Maren on his new tour, as he told Ellen and the audience, “You guys are gonna hear about her. She’s incredible.”
• Congratulations to Maren on being chosen as iHeartRadio’s newest On the Verge Artist! The six-week program includes on-air exposure as well as significant digital and social support across iHeartMedia’s network of country radio stations and websites. The program is based on key tracks and artists that iHeartMedia’s programmers are collectively passionate about. Very cool!
• Maren’s debut single, “My Church,” officially impacts radio on Monday the 18th! You can find the song on her self-titled EP, available now on Apple Music.

  Maren Morris is thrilled to have been invited on tour this year with Keith Urban. (:23)
“To be asked to go on that tour, especially as a very, very new artist, it’s rocked my world. And you know, he had only heard one or two songs of mine before he offered me the slot on the tour, so I think that sort of proved to me that he had an emotional reaction to the music and took a risk — and I really respect him for that.”
