Chicago, Nashville & Miami are next
Kenny Chesney has expanded his book tour for the launch of his November 4th memoir, Heart Life Music. Three new dates, including Chicago, Nashville, and Miami, are set for November, following sold-out events in Johnson City, TN, and Boston on November 1st and 2nd, respectively.
Heart Life Music: The Book Tour will go to Chicago the day after release for an event at the Copernicus Center, presented by The Book Stall. Then Chesney will head to Nashville for two book talks at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s CMA Theater, in partnership with Parnassus Books. Chesney will headline the Miami Book Fair on November 16th at the Chapman Center at Miami Dade College.
Joined for freewheeling conversations that explore the story and process by two-time LA Press Club Music Criticism and Entertainment Journalist of the Year and co-author, Holly Gleason, Chesney will deep dive into Heart Life Music. Establishing a voice that captured coming of age and living life as fully as possible in the 21st Century, the East Tennessee native wants each event to reflect his unique relationship with No Shoes Nation, the music, and anyone seeking inspiration to create their own place in the world.
Known for commanding the largest stages nationwide, Heart Life Music ventures to places long gone, makes unexpected music in Jamaica, the Kremlin, New England and Cabo San Lucas, drifts across the waters of the Caribbean, Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Beyond meeting and collaborating with heroes, forging transcendent friendships in the islands and beyond, Chesney’s introspective look at the songs and sound that defined No Shoes Nation offers the intimacy of sharing a slow afternoon on the water.
Thank you, ETSU + Boston, for the excitement…
Nashville, Chicago & the Miami Book Fair, I can’t wait to talk about HEART LIFE MUSIC with you, too.
