Kenny Chesney To Release ‘Here And Now’ Album May 1
Kenny Chesney has completed his Here And Now album and the new project, his first for Warner Music Nashville, will be released on May 1, 2020.
Kenny says of the new project, “People work hard, and need music that makes them smile, that kicks them into a happy place. There are songs here that look at very specific people, that tell one person’s story, but it could be any of us. That’s the mark of a good song: let one person’s specific life say so much about a lot of people’s lives. And one of the things I really wanted (for Here and Now) was to bring a lot of my favorite writers together, not to do ‘writing camp,’ but just hang out and talk, remember when it was the stories and laughs that sparked songs, not sitting down to churn out something to cut.”
He adds, “When you’re this far into a career, I think artists need to keep pushing themselves and the music without losing sight of who they are, or forgetting the people you make music for. No Shoes Nation is a very passionate place without borders; I get inspired every time I see and hear them.”
Chesney posted to Instagram, “New album #hereandnow out May 1.”
