During the Thanksgiving Day performance Urban is expected to play a number of his top hits, including his latest single "Put You in a Song" from his forthcoming CD Get Closer (in stores on November 16th).

"I'm really honored to be a part of this great tradition and great partnership between the Dallas Cowboys and the Salvation Army," said Urban. "It's gonna be amazing playing in Cowboys Stadium in that environment at half time of the Thanksgiving game!"

"This year, Keith Urban, one of the most popular music artists in the world, will kick-off the Red Kettle Campaign in style, and we couldn't be happier," said Charlotte Jones Anderson, recently announced as the new Chairperson of The Salvation Army's National Advisory Board. "We know Keith's drive to share his voice with others, will connect with and encourage the American public to give generously and support the important work being done by The Salvation Army."
