Kenny Chesney to Release Second Greatest Hits Album

He’s the biggest ticket-seller in North America of the 21st century, and he’s the 4-time and reigning ACM and CMA Entertainer of the Year. He has sold in excess of 25 million records – and since 2001, has been the soundtrack of summer for a whole generation of young Americans coming of age.

“It’s hard to believe it’s been 8 years since we released ‘Young’,” marvels the man from Luttrell, Tenn. “There has been so many memories, so much magic, so much great music… It all just keeps happening and you’re loving every moment of it, and not keeping score. When I realized all the songs that weren’t gonna make it that were hits, that’s when it hit me how much music me and the guys have made since the first Greatest Hits.”

Chesney’s collaboration with Uncle Kracker, “When The Sun Goes Down,” Dave Matthews, “I’m Alive,” and his most recent No. 1 with Mac McAnally, “Down The Road,” will flesh out the special guest appearances. Filling out the project will be “Living In Fast Forward,” “Young,” “Summertime,” “Beer In Mexico,” “There Goes My Life,” “Anything But Mine, “I Go Back,” “Never Wanted Nothing More,” “No Shirt, No Shoes, No Problems” and the Academy of Country Music Single of the Year, “The Good Stuff.”

Currently in the middle of his commando Keg in the Closet tour, Chesney is waist deep in rehearsals for his Corona Extra sponsored Sun City Carnival tour with Miranda Lambert and Lady Antebellum on all dates and special guests Sugarland and Montgomery Gentry on the stadiums.
