Having broken his single night attendance records at stadium after stadium on his Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour, Kenny Chesney extends his own record for the most No. 1 singles on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. Reprising his beloved polaroids of life with “Take Her Home,” the East Tennessee songwriter/superstar continues creating songs that reflect how the people of No Shoes Nation live, breathe and love.

“It’s an amazing feeling, hearing the people singing it back to us,” Chesney says. “It reminds you how these songs really do hold pieces of actual lives inside them, how deeply people feel these records; they’re more than hits. But when you get that call, and they tell you it’s No. 1, you realize how many people are seeing themselves on the radio. To me, that’s why I started doing this.”

Having sold out Lincoln Financial Field in March, adding tickets and selling those out, too, along with Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium and three straight nights at Foxborough, Mass.’s Gillette Stadium, Chesney has spent 2024 connecting with his fans on a whole other level. Whether the shows, the tailgating, No Shoes Radio, Blue Chair Bay® Rum pre-games or sharing the stage with Uncle Kracker and Megan Moroney, it’s been all about friendship, good times and how life comes at you one day at a time.

“The energy and passion I’m feeling this summer is a whole new level,” allows the man the Wall Street Journal crowned “The King of the Road” a decade ago. “That heart and soul is so strong, it takes these songs to places we didn’t always realize they went. Last week when I was sick, they really brought it and sang with me in a way that changed everything.

“And it’s in songs like ‘Take Her Home,’ the ones that slow things down, where that desire to be in the moment really stands out. So, to stand onstage at Soldier Field and tell those fans their lives are No. 1, that this song is like them hitting the top of the charts? I can’t wait.”

Creating a space where people can be their best selves, BORN spanned the phases of life, chasing adventure and forging memories with the friends who know how to create the best of every moment. Having defined the sound of coming of age in the flyover in the 21st century, Chesney continues pursuing the best of what the world has to offer – and serving it up in song.

Playing hard and bringing a band that means business with him, there’s going to be a lot of reasons to celebrate in the Windy City. Once again presented by Blue Chair Bay® Rum, the Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour twists all the high velocity and screaming guitars to America’s favorite football stadiums for a night that makes summer official

“...because everything gets hotter when the sun goes down...”

It’s been four years since Kenny Chesney created new music for No Shoes Nation. During that time, he got to reflect on some of the great songs he’s written and been able to record, the kinds of songs that helped make him the artist with the most No. 1’s in Billboard’s Country Airplay category. And when the East Tennessee songwriter/superstar heard “Take Her Home,” he responded because – like Academy of Country Music Single of the Year “The Good Stuff,” “Don’t Blink” or even “There Goes My Life” – it served as a series of snapshots that marked pivotal moments in how love happens.

When it came time for a video for the song currently moving up the chart, the man known for his high energy shows and stadium-sized summers wanted something decidedly different. As he explains of the creative mandate for the video for “Take Her Home,” “Everything about this song is a little movie. Each verse is its own act, and you can see all the details if you’re listening. The deep cut Cheap Trick on a jukebox in a crowded bar... the pink and black suitcases... even the little baby in the last verse. There’s so much detail, people can see it in their heads.

“I wanted to figure a way that mirrors the innocence in this song. I wanted something that wouldn’t take away what someone else was seeing when they saw the video. It seems like the opposite from what you might do, but I think it’ll make sense when people see it.”

Simple and straightforward, the “Take Her Home” video leaves lots of room for people to populate with their own images, their own life’s story even. While Chesney serves as the clip’s narrator, an old school video effect turns the action into a slightly distorted set of vignettes that follow the storyline without overwhelming viewers’ own inner movies.

“Songs like ‘Take Her Home’ deserve to paint pictures for the listeners,” Chesney continues. “When you can see yourself, or your friends, or someone you know in a song, that’s when a song will last long after it’s done playing. To me, this song has that potential for people... and as much as I like making videos, I also know the power of No Shoes Nation’s ability to live in my songs.”

Watch the video for “Take Her Home” below.

Having announced the March 29 release of BORN, his greatly anticipated album, Chesney is moving the creative process forward with purpose. Not only is he delivering the video from “Take Her Home” directly to his fans, he’s finalizing the track listing for his first new music since 2020.

Defining his place in American music by distilling the best part of being young, alive and seeking what the world has to offer, that hunger for music and life as it’s lived continues fueling Chesney’s work. As the chiming acoustically-grounded life-in-three-acts “Take Her Home” continues its rise up the charts, currently #27, it’s hitting a note for listeners who’ve been there.

With his Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour adding an unprecedented third show at Foxborough, Mass.’s Gillette Stadium, Chesney’s ability to make common moments remarkable brings No Shoes Nation together summer after summer. “Take Her Home” is part of that magic.
