Kenny Chesney To Tonight on April 15
BNA superstar Kenny Chesney is getting ready to release his highly anticipated concert film, Kenny Chesney: Summer in 3D, and he’ll visit The Tonight Show With Jay Leno on April 15 to promote it. Opening for a limited time on April 21 at close to 1000 3D theaters, the film chronicles Chesney’s high-energy stage show while offering behind the scenes footage and archival moments.
“It’s sorta strange to be going on The Tonight Show with a movie coming out,” Chesney says. “It’s very different, the idea of showing clips and talking about the experience of making this film, and it’s definitely getting me out of my comfort zone.”
