Chesney extends "Welcome to the Fishbowl"
The over features a hated Chesney wearing pants and a cut-off T shirt with his right hand holding the top of a guitar case. He appears to be standing on a stone structure with tones of green, yellow and reddish brown behind him.
The news comes as Chesney gears up for the Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday, April 1, for which he has more nominations than any artist this year. Chesney will be joined onstage for a special performance with Tim McGraw, with whom he is touring for the first time in 10 years this summer during the 20-stadium 'Brothers of the Sun' Tour.
"Welcome To The Fishbowl," Chesney's 13th studio album, follows 2010's platinum-certified "Hemingway's Whiskey," which spawned four number one singles. Chesney's ACM nominations include Entertainer of the Year, Album of the Year for "Hemingway's Whiskey" (as both artist and producer), and Song of the Year for You and Tequila with Grace Potter.
The 'Brothers of the Sun' Tour kicks off June 2 in Tampa, Fla. and has sold more than 600,000 tickets. The tour will hit stadiums across the country and will also feature Grace Potter & The Nocturnals and Jake Owen.

CD reviews for Kenny Chesney
After a storied run including eight Entertainer of the Year awards and two Greatest Hits albums (so far), Kenny Chesney was due for a setback. This one wasn't strictly personal, as the "Chillaxification" Tour got waylaid by a pandemic shutdown that scrapped most everything. The loss really belonged to the fans, as the original "Here and Now" record Chesney was supporting was a beauty – from the stirring "Knowing You" to the snarky "Wasted", ...
For many years now, Kenny Chesney has been the number one yacht country artist; one never spotted far from an ocean or without an adult beverage in his hand. However, this album's title track expresses a much deeper perspective on life. "I must've sat on a dozen islands/Watched the sun sink into the sea." Previously, island living was the reason for life. Now, life's purpose is described as much more internal than external. Call it trading that pirate flag for a little more mindfulness. ...
Kenny Chesney's "Song for the Saints" is a step in the right direction for the popular country star.
