Kenny Chesney went from outside the Knoxville, Tennessee, city limits playing sports and loving music to defining the sound of coming-of-age in the 21st century. Rewriting and refocusing what a song could be, he fused rock, reggae, bluegrass, and scores of positive energy to become a stadium-sized superstar and the only country act in Billboard’s “Top 10 Touring Acts of the Last 25 Years” for the past 15 years. A songwriter, groundbreaker, visionary, and regular guy, he’ll speak with award-winning music critic and his HEART • LIFE • MUSIC co-author Holly Gleason about the journey to get here, a Nashville being forgotten, the thrill of meeting and befriending his heroes, and why pretty normal people can do incredible things.
Please Note:All session attendees will be required to undergo a bag check and go through metal detectors and/or be wanded by security prior to entering the venue. This is NOT a concert; Chesney will be appearing at MBF25 to present his new book, ONLY.
