Kenny Chesney To Break From Touring

Kenny Chesney fans won’t be seeing the country entertainer on the road in 2014. Chesney, who is currently in the middle of his No Shoes Nation Tour, has plans to take next year off to focus on the follow-up project to Life On A Rock, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The forthcoming album will be the singer’s 17th studio album.
Chesney, who is known for his relentless touring, previously took a year off from the road in 2010.
“I love touring more than anyone in the world,” Chesney says. “I love the band, the crew, the whole team — and it’s weird to not be looking at next year’s stage design, but I shouldn’t make albums to service the tour. So I’m going to put the music first, dial it back and do the strangest thing in the world: not hit the road next summer.”
The “When I See This Bar” singer recently sold the 1 millionth ticket for his No Shoes Nation Tour.
