Kenny Chesney Tour Dates Include Charleston, SC

Kenny Chesney has left little doubt after almost two decades that he's here to stay as a country music superstar. Even though his debut album from Capricorn Records, "In My Wildest Dreams" was released to little fanfare, Kenny had some success from the albums and has gone on to release twelve more albums to wild success.
The success of Kenny's music is remarkable. Of the first thirteen albums he released, eleven were certified gold or higher by the RIAA. His debut may not have sold record numbers on Capricorn Records, but the independent label's release spurred two singles, "The Tin Man" and "Whatever It Takes" that garnered enough success to prove that Kenny had star potential. Capricorn Records decided to discontinue publishing country music later that year, but Kenny was destined for bigger things.
Kenny Chesney's amazing career includes four consecutive AMC Entertainer of the year awards, sic CMA awards and more than thirty top ten country music hits.
Seventeen of Kenny's songs have hit number one, and his 2007 summer tour was the highest grossing country music tour of the year. One hit record is amazing; two is incredible. Seventeen is downright unbelievable.
Making his way to Nashville, which is just north of his hometown and east of his collegiate home, Kenny Chesney worked the music scene in the famed Music City, looking to capture a piece of his dream of a career in music.
Although his first 'official' release was in 1994, he actually recorded a record in 1989 in Virginia which he sold at his various gigs.
After venturing to Nashville when he graduated from college, he worked to get in front of music producers and publishers. In 1992, he achieved his first real success with a deal with Opryland Music Group and BMI. Despite his youth, Kenny's experience playing for live audiences no doubt showed his potential.
Kenny graduated from ETSU with a degree in marketing and had a few years of playing in front of audiences, so he was already developing into the star country music fans have come to know.
Kenny Chesney's summer concert tour this year includes a stop in Charleston, SC on September 12 at the North Charleston Coliseum. Kenny's tour is one of the biggest of the summer with venues across the United States and Canada.
Kenny has had enough longevity and success to warrant two greatest hits albums, the first coming in 2000 and the second in 2009. Although he did not enjoy immediate breakout success, he's proven to be one of the biggest country music stars of the last decade.
