Date Set For Next Chesney Album

Kenny Chesney performed Bruce Springsteen's "I'm On Fire" Tuesday on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon."

Kenny Chesney’s next album will be released June 19 on BNA Records. The as-yet-untitled project is the follow-up to his critically acclaimed Hemingway’s Whiskey, a platinum album which yielded major hits “You and Tequila,” “The Boys of Fall,” “Somewhere With You,” “Live A Little,” and “Reality.”

Chesney leads the Academy of Country Music nominations heading into the April 1 show. His nine nods include Entertainer of the Year, Album of the Year (Hemingway’s Whiskey as both artist and producer), and Male Vocalist of the Year.

After playing to more than 11 million fans over the last decade, Chesney will continue the party this summer. His Brothers of the Sun Tour with Tim McGraw kicks off June 2 in Tampa, FL. The outing marks the first time in 10 years the longtime friends have hit the road together. Featuring Grace Potter & The Nocturnals and Jake Owen, the tour will hit stadiums across the country, including a June 23 stop at Nashville’s LP Field, just days after the release of Chesney’s album.

His career sales total more than 30 million units.
