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.

Eleven of Kenny's first thirteen albums were not only proof of his staying power, but were commercially successful, garnering him certified gold from the RIAA. Even though his first debut only sold 10,00 albums from the independent Capricorn Records label, two singles from the album, "The Tin Man" and "Whatever It Takes" brushed the Hot Country Singles & Tracks Billboard charts. Unfortunately, within the year, Capricorn decided to no longer publish country music and Kenny had to move on.

Kenny Chesney has released more than thirty top ten country hits since his first release, including a whopping seventeen that peaked at number one. He has won four consecutive Entertainer of the Year American Country Music awards and six awards from the Country Music Association.

During the 2007 summer touring season, his tour was the highest grossing country concert series of the year.

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.

During his college years at East Tennessee State, he played bluegrass and recorded a record to sell at his gigs in 1989.

Kenny made his way to Nashville, TN, which is known worldwide as the home of country music and just north of Kenny's home town of Knoxville. Kenny's efforts to land a record deal paid off in 1992, when he signed with BMI and Opryland Music Group.

The 2009 tour includes a show on September 12 in Charleston, South Carolina, at the North Charleston Coliseum. This tour is one of the mega tours of the country music summer season with tour dates all across the United States and Canada.

This year's Kenny Chesney tour has been dubbed the Sun City Carnival Tour, in support of his most recent album, Lucky Old Sun, which was released in the fall of 2008. The album had already had a number one single by the time it debuted, titled "Everybody Wants to go to Heaven".

Despite the slow start to his career, he's made up for it with incredible success during the first two decades of releasing hit country music. He is truly one of country's modern music superstars, with two greatest hits albums already available.
