In 1998, Keith Urban made what would be the first of several trips to rehab after enjoying the rock and roll lifestyle a little too much. The “Making Memories of Us” singer checked himself into the Cumberland Heights facility in the home of country music, Nashville, on realizing that his addiction to cocaine had gotten out of control.
Urban was living in the Tennessee city at the time, as he recalled several years later to USA Weekend (via TMZ): “I had this house in Nashville where I used to do drugs. It was a really cheap, rundown place. I remember one night crawling around on my hands and knees, looking for these little rocks at five in the morning, and I was drenched in sweat. It was the worst.”
In another interview with Rolling Stone, Urban recalled how he began his wild partying days while touring with his band The Ranch: “I liked to get crazy after the gig and when I would do lots of drugs is when I was home off the road. If we were home for five days, I’d be f***ed up most of the time, and then I would sort of get it together, fall into the van, sleep to whatever, Wichita, Kansas, then I would sort of come to and then we would play the show that night.”
