KENNY CHESNEY PACKS UP THE TRUCKS

Rehearsals for Intimate Songs for the Saints 2019 Tour Are Done

Look for Take-It-To-The-People Kick-Off April 4 in Louisville
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Kenny Chesney, the eight-time Country Music Association and Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year, wrapped rehearsals for his Songs for the Saints 2019 Tour – and watched as the breakdown and loadout began. Having once again played to well over a million people in 2018 – topping the million mark in Boston alone after his 18th show at Foxborough’s storied Gillette Stadium – the East Tennessee songwriter/superstar made the decision to take the music to the fans living in markets where stadium shows are not always an option.

“Growing up outside of Knoxville, I remember the tours that didn’t come near us,” Chesney says. “You’d hear about them, read about them – and even dream about them. But if it wasn’t playing the Knoxville Civic, well, it wasn’t something we could get to.”

With a focus on arena plays – and a few festivals where he has 
history – the man the Los Angeles Times called “The People’s Superstar” is scaling his massive stadium-sized shows back to bring them inside. Just don’t expect the setlist or the energy to shrink.

“One of the things I wanted to make sure,” allows the man who’s the only country act in Billboard’s Top 10 Touring Acts of the Last 25 Years, “is that even if we’re in a more contained space, the No Shoes Nation is going to get the same impact, the same energy, the same feeling that the people coming to the stadiums experience. It’s obviously a different show; we couldn’t begin to get all that production into an arena, but I promise it’s going to be a whole lot of fun and music.”

Known for the high intensity of his concerts – the Wall Street Journal deemed him “The King of the Road” after a record-setting AT&T Stadium show – that connection live is everything. As he says each night onstage, “Whatever your problems, whether it’s work or your boyfriend or anything else, I want you to leave them out there… and just be inside this music. I want you to feel that, and forget about everything else.”

Joining Chesney for the Songs for the Saints 2019 Tour are David Lee Murphy, his duet partner on the No. 1 hit and CMA Vocal Event of the Year “Everything’s Gonna Be Alright,” and Caroline Jones. With a spirit of friendship, discovery 
and celebration, in many ways this more intimate tour continues the intention of his charitable Songs for the Saints album, which featured Ziggy Marley, Mindy Smith and Jimmy Buffett.

“Music is medicine,” Chesney says. “It heals people and defines who we are. But it’s so much more: it brings us together and reminds us how precious life is. When I was making Songs for the Saints, how I saw music and what it does changed. No Shoes Nation has always been one of the most passionate ‘places’ in the world, but I realized these songs, which mark people’s lives, also lift us up in ways that give us strength, community and a whole lot of joy. It’s a party, but it’s also a whole lot more.

“I can’t wait to get out there and get to some of these places we’ve not been in a while. Get ready! We’re coming.”

The Songs for the Saints Tour is presented by Blue Chair Bay Rum. Drink Responsibly.

Fans from day one, and fans jumping in to discover us now – you are, as cliché as this sentiment can be, making all of it possible," shared EYB on Instagram"This album brings the songs you love most to one place! Thankful for the past, and excited for the future. We hope you will turn it on, up, and sing along!"

Revisiting their early days on the road when many of their signature tracks were created, EYB compiled a playlist titled “Songs From the Van” for Billboard and “features both superstar rockers (Queen) and introspective singer-songwriters (Marc Broussard), all of whom put an emphasis on harmonies and instrumentals the way Eli Young Band does.” Collectively sharing the theme, EYB recalls, “Although these are all songs and artists that have influenced our music, these more specifically capture a moment in time for us when it was just the four of us – in a van – taking on the world one small stage at a time.” Listen to EYB’s picks here.
 
Formed at the University of North Texas, EYB’s journey features #1 hits PLATINUM "Drunk Last Night,” 2X PLATINUM “Even If It Breaks Your Heart,” and 3X PLATINUM “Crazy Girl.” Globally, they have racked up over 2.8 billion in streams. Continuing to punch-up their live appearances, EYB has headlining and festival shows slated through the summer.

About Jon Langston   Loganville, GA native, singer-songwriter Jon Langston grew up on music like his heroes Alan Jackson and the Eagles. And once multiple concussions ended his Division I football career, he worked to develop his own style and sound while drawing from that variety of influences. In 2013 with the release of his first song, “Forever Girl,” Jon’s live shows began to grow, and he found himself opening for Chase Rice at Georgia’s Kennesaw State University.  It was his first-ever full band show, and when the crowd sang “Forever Girl” along with him, Jon knew he wanted to pursue a career in music. Since then, the now 27-year-old Music City resident has not only signed a publishing deal with Sony ATV and is managed by KP Entertainment, but has fostered his own voice in country music and landed a record deal with Universal Music Group Nashville. The Georgia native is the first artist under Luke Bryan’s new label, 32 Bridge Entertainment, and will be worked in conjunction with EMI Records Nashville. He recently released his major label debut single “When It Comes To Loving You” which landed in the Top 5 of the all-genre iTunes Chart and has accumulated over 9 million streams.
