Kenny Chesney is one country star who can fill a stadium in almost every U.S. city. Last week ( 3/23), he kicked off his “I Go Back Tour” with opener and fellow East Tennessee native Kelsea Ballerini.
Kenny commented on the tour on Instagram in part back when he announced it in November, “No Shoes Nation, I’m so excited to finally announce the #IGoBackTour 2023 with special guest Kelsea Ballerini. ‘I Go Back’ is a song about holding all those things that shaped you very close and keeping them alive any way you can. In 2023, I decided rather than just go repeat what we did on this summer’s stadium tour; I wanted to take this band and these songs to a lot of the cities we played on our way up, call it the I Go Back Tour, and do just that.”
