Chesney adds four shows

Chesney is playing a few dates, including two at his home away from home - Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Mass. The four new shows are the Tuscaloosa Amphitheater on Aug. 4 in Alabama and The Wharf Amphitheatre in Orange Beach, Ala. on Aug. 5, followed by two nights at the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Conn. on Aug. 10 and 11.

"As long as we're rehearsing and I've got new music in the pipeline, I can't imagine not playing a little bit," said Chesney. "I know that it takes time off to create and make records... to write and find songs like 'American Kids' and 'Noise,' but that doesn't mean I don't miss the fans. There is nothing that feeds me more than hearing the sound of the No Shoes Nation singing these songs, seeing those faces and knowing this is gonna be one of those nights."

"We're gonna bring a whole year's worth of energy," Chesney promises. "So if you're coming, you better be ready for it, because this is our chance in 2017 to rock."

General tickets go on sale to the public on Friday, April 14 starting at 10 a.m. local time.

Chesney's last disc was "Cosmic Hallelujah," which included the songs "Bar at the End of the World" and "Setting the World on Fire" with Pink.
