"From the baggage claim to a REAL STAGE !!!!" said Keith on Instagram as he posted a series of videos from his set.
"Sooooo fun celebrating the release of ‘Messed Up As Me’ with loads of you in Concourse C yesterday and a massive thank you to everyone at @flynashville for helping us pull off the surprise."
As fellow country musician Eli V quipped in the comments: "I'd miss my flight to watch the whole show without ANY hesitation."
A few days ago, Keith had given fans some insight about what he new track is all about.
"This song is about a relationship…should we call it a relationship ??? We’re calling it a relationship," he said.
"It's about two people who know they aren’t good for each other: it’s dysfunctional, makes no sense, it might even be toxic, but they keep going back because there’s one thing they’re REALLY good at !!!"
