Kenny Chesney’s forthcoming double LP Live in No Shoes Nation is pulling together 30 performances from a decade of live concerts, including several special guests.
Live in No Shoes Nation opens, appropriately, with the boozy rock & roll strains of “Flora-Bama,” an album cut originally from 2014’s The Big Revival, and its depiction of a real-life haven for followers of the “No Shoes” ethos. Hits and album cuts follow, from “Summertime” to the title track from 2010’s Hemingway’s Whiskey. Mixed in are a treasure trove of all-star collaborations, including a version of “Big Star” with Taylor Swift, “When I See This Bar” with Eric Church, “You and Tequila” with Grace Potter and a cover of “Dust on the Bottle” with its originator David Lee Murphy.
Chesney’s been steadily releasing music from 2016’s Cosmic Hallelujah– including a new video for his current single “All the Pretty Girls” that came out over the weekend – but he’s been pretty quiet on the touring front in 2017, playing a pair of shows in Alabama in early August and another two in Connecticut on August 10th and 11th. On August 25th and 26th, he’ll play two headlining dates at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
