Now THAT’S a jam session!

While performing a show in New Hampshire on Saturday night, Keith Urban took a chance on a fan named Rob, who claimed that he could be the star’s “backup guitarist”.

The country star noticed a sign held up by a young woman near the front row of the audience. It read: “It’s my boyfriend’s birthday!”

After discovering that the young man’s birthday wish was to play onstage with his hero, Keith invited him up to realise his dream.

In a moment that would surely do the trick on its own, the New Zealand-born star passed Rob the guitar off his own back, to which he proceeded to play a flawless rendition of Good Thing.

Shocked by the fans incredible talent, Nicole Kidman’s husband joined in for what can only be described as the jam session to end all jam sessions!

After the show, Keith, who was clearly still buzzing from the standing ovation that followed him as he departed the stage, uploaded a candid video to his official Facebook page, thanking Rob for the awesome time.

“Massive shout out of awesomeness to Rob who killed it tonight on the guitar,” he began with a laugh.

“Man – killed it. It was awesome and you played your ass off!”
