The album also earned Kenny Chesney a seventh consecutive No. 1 on the country charts — a streak that began with 2002's No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems.

Aside from his co-headlining shows with the Zac Brown Band in 2011, Kenny Chesney also has a few tour dates to himself in 2011. The chart-topping country musician will perform concerts on an April 8-9 tour schedule at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT, followed by an April 30 headline show at the 2011 Stagecoach Festival in Indio, CA.

KENNY CHESNEY BIO INFORMATION :

It took him nearly a decade to get there, but in 2002 Kenny Chesney began his ascent to a Garth Brooks-like status in country music when his blockbuster album No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems rocketed to Number on the country and pop charts and eventually sold more than 4 million copies. In 2008, Kenny Chesney won the Academy of Country Music's Entertainer of the Year award for the fourth consecutive year. Chesney's mix of heartland rock, pop and country has earned him more than thirty Top Ten country singles and numerous awards.

Born Kenneth Arnold Chesney on March 26, 1968, in Knoxville, Tennessee, to a hair stylist mother, he was raised in nearby Luttrell. Chesney played football at Gibbs High School in Corryton, Tennessee, but didn't begin playing music until he was in college at East Tennessee State University in Johnson City, where he studied advertising. After graduating, he moved to Nashville and signed with BMI and Opryland Music Group in 1992. His debut album, In My Wildest Dreams, came out in two years later on the newly revived southern rock label Capricorn Records. Though it was more pure country than his later albums, Chesney set the tone of his winning career with his smooth baritone on slick ballads like "When She Calls Me Baby" and the upbeat honky-tonk of "Whatever It Takes," which climbed to Number 59 on Billboard's country singles chart.

Kenny Chesney left Capricorn for RCA subsidiary BNA Records and released his breakthrough second album, All I Need to Know, which yielded Top Ten country hits in the pop-country Fall in Love and ballad All I Need to Know. Successive albums — Me and You and I Will Stand — fared even better, producing the country hits When I Close My Eyes, Me and You, She's Got it All, A Chance, I Will Stand and That's Why I'm Here. more Kenny Chesney biography and don’t forget to check back for updates on the Kenny Chesney tour and more Kenny Chesney tour dates as they are announced for 2011.
