Kenny Chesney To Celebrate Book Release With ‘Heart Life Music Tour’
Kenny Chesney.
Kenny Chesney is celebrating the release of his book, Heart Life Music, with two book events and more to be announced soon. Chesney will return to East Tennessee State University on Nov. 1 before heading to Boston on Nov. 2. Chesney will be joined by two-time LA Press Club Music Critic and co-author Holly Gleason for the conversations.
“Having looked at my life in ways I never thought of,” shares Chesney. “I realized: I’ve always loved sports, music and the sea. But the idea I’d chase this dream came together in Johnson City, trying to learn Doc Watson picking from Jack Tottle, playing Quarterbacks and Chuckey’s, and going to Russia with East Tennessee State University’s Bluegrass Band. For me, going back to East Tennessee State University where all of this began was the only way to kick this book tour off. Hopefully, someone in the audience who’s wondering about their own dream might find what they need to get serious about whatever it is they’re chasing. Whether the friends I made in the islands long before this journey kicked into gear, Ginny Brophy who welcomed a kid with nothing going on at WKLB, the crazy fun with Grace Potter, sailing and more with Ethel Kennedy around the Nantucket Sound, conversations with the Globe’s Steve Morse or Super Bowls with Robert Kraft and his organization, there’s been something about the people of New England that recognizes the kid from East Tennessee in me. I like to say, ‘They believe me,’ but I think it’s more they know the same grit and passion that’s driven me and my team all these years.
Tickets for both events will go on sale Sept. 19 at 10 a.m. ET.
