Longtime great country music signer Kenny Chesney is coming to Miller Park on April 28, 2018. This tour stop is part of the “Trip
Around The Sun” in 2018, which is scheduled to begin April 21 in Tampa,
Florida. The Miller Park show will then be the second stop on his tour.
Following the Miller Park concert, Chesney will head for Minneapolis on May 5, before
heading south for shows in Texas. On May 17th he will be in
Woodlands at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. Two days later he will be at
AT&T Stadium in Arlington. The tour will finish with back-to-back
performances at Gillette Stadium on Boston on the 24th and 25th
of August. Opening for Chesney on this tour will be the likes of Thomas Rhett,
Old Dominion, and Brandon Lay.
Since his career began back in 1994, Chesney has
recorded 20 albums, 14 of which have been certified Gold. His most recent
Album, Cosmic Halleluiah, released in March of 2016, topped out at number one
on the country charts and sold 235,000 copies. The interesting aspect of
Chesney’s career is that unlike many musicians in his position who burst onto
the scene, his career started out like many struggling artists. His first two
albums failed to make it onto any notable lists, and it wasn’t until his fifth
album that he cracked the top five on the country music charts. As the decade
turned to the 2000’s, his career went from average to incredible. His last nine
albums have topped out at number one on the country charts.
