The song received 30 million impressions this week
Having broken his single night attendance records at stadium after stadium on his Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour, Kenny Chesney extends his record for the most No. 1 singles on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. Reprising his beloved polaroids of life with “Take Her Home,” the East Tennessee songwriter/superstar continues creating songs that reflect how the people of No Shoes Nation live, breathe and love.
“It’s an amazing feeling, hearing the people singing it back to us,” Chesney says. “It reminds you how these songs really do hold pieces of actual lives inside them, how deeply people feel these records; they’re more than hits. But when you get that call, and they tell you it’s No. 1, you realize how many people are seeing themselves on the radio. To me, that’s why I started doing this.”
Having sold out Lincoln Financial Field in March, adding tickets and selling those out, too, along with Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium and three straight nights at Foxborough, MA’s Gillette Stadium, Chesney has spent 2024 connecting with his fans on a whole other level. Whether the shows, the tailgating, No Shoes Radio, Blue Chair Bay Rum pre-games or sharing the stage with Uncle Kracker and Megan Moroney, it’s been all about friendship, good times, and how life comes at you one day at a time.
“The energy and passion I’m feeling this summer is a whole new level. That heart and soul is so strong, it takes these songs to places we didn’t always realize they went. Last week when I was sick, they really brought it and sang with me in a way that changed everything,” Chesney states.
“And it’s in songs like ‘Take Her Home,’ the ones that slow things down, where that desire to be in the moment really stands out. So, to stand onstage at Soldier Field and tell those fans their lives are No. 1, that this song is like them hitting the top of the charts? I can’t wait.”
Creating a space where people can be their best selves, Born spanned the phases of life, chasing adventure and forging memories with friends who know how to create the best of every moment. Having defined the sound of coming of age in the flyover in the 21st century, Chesney continues pursuing the best of what the world has to offer – and serving it up in song.
Playing hard and bringing a band that means business with him, there’s going to be a lot of reasons to celebrate in the Windy City. Once again presented by Blue Chair Bay Rum, the Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour twists all the high velocity and screaming guitars to America’s favorite football stadiums for a night that makes summer official.
