Eleven-Year-Old Lauren Spencer Smith Shines in a Duet with Keith Urban
Don’t miss this standout Adele cover duet, captured at Sunfest in Florida, 2015, showcasing the talents of Australian sensation Keith Urban and American Idol’s Lauren Spencer-Smith. Their rendition of Adele’s (Dylan’s) “Make You Feel My Love” electrifies the audience, especially considering Lauren’s age of just eleven at the time!
Keith shares that he often holds a contest to select a fan for a stage duet during his concerts. This time, he chose two, expressing his excitement to have Lauren join him. It’s rare to see someone, especially an eleven-year-old, share the stage with Keith Urban and hold their own in front of a huge audience.
Lauren’s performance is a hit, winning over the crowd instantly. Born in Portsmouth, England (September 23, 2003), Lauren moved to Canada with her family at three and grew up with a passion for music in the Vancouver Island region. Her journey into music began early, participating in a school talent show at six and launching her own YouTube channel at eleven. Her channel has since grown to 702,000 subscribers, featuring videos with over a million views, and her recent venture into original songwriting has only added to her acclaim.
In 2019, Lauren released two albums, “Unplugged Vol 1” and “Vol 2,” with the former earning a Juno nomination. Despite losing to Bryan Adams, the nomination itself is an achievement. Her stint on American Idol in 2020 brought her into the limelight, and her 2022 self-released single “Fingers Crossed” achieved international success, charting impressively without formal promotion, hinting at a promising career ahead.
Keith Urban, celebrated globally, has a family with Nicole Kidman and boasts a successful music career with numerous awards. His candid discussions about overcoming personal challenges add depth to his public persona, showcasing his resilience and dedication to both his craft and personal life.
