Kenny Named one of Billboard's Top 5 Touring Acts of 2015
When Kenny took his 2015 The Big Revival Tour on the road, he wanted to rock as many people as humanly possible. Now, with just 57 dates, he was named the only country act making Billboards Top 5 Touring Acts of 2015 alongside Taylor Swift, One Direction, U2 and the Rolling Stones.
Beyond the dollars, Chesney played to the third highest number of fans 1,335,022 after list-topper Swifts 1,982,076 for 71 shows and No. 2 One Direction's 2,337,938 for 80 shows. Summer after summer, Kenny remains focused on rocking the No Shoes Nation for all theyre worth.
Every year when we hit the road, Im trying to figure out how to bring it harder, play more music and make it a night the people who live their lives in the songs will remember, says Kenny. Weve been doing this enough years, that you know you have to really bring it to just compete with what youve already done. And its about the music youre making now, as well as the ability to bring it when you hit the stage every night.
The Big Revival Tour also is the eighth time Kenny has won Top Package at Billboards annual Touring Awards. The man, who has brought Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood, Lady Antebellum, Rascal Flatts, Zac Brown Band and Dierks Bentley out with him, tapped Jason Aldean, Eric Church, Brantley Gilbert, Old Dominion, Cole Swindell and Chase Rice out this summer. His sold out show at Chicagos Soldier Field with Miranda Lambert inspired Chesney to tap his former tour mate for his upcoming 2016 tour of stadiums, amphitheaters, arenas and a few festivals.
