The No Shoes Nation will be stomping into Las Vegas this spring when Kenny Chesney hits the Sphere stage. Chesney will be the first country act to take up residency at Sphere, following U2, Dead & Company, Eagles, Phish, and Afterlife Presents Anyma as resident artists.
“I’m always looking for ways to deepen the way No Shoes Nation experiences this music,” Chesney said in a press release announcing his first-ever residency. “Over the years, they have shown me through their response to these songs how passionate they are about what they mean and how these songs are part of their lives. When people give you that much heart, I want to give them even more.”
Chesney has scheduled 12 performances at Sphere from May 22 to June 14. Tickets go on sale to the general public on January 31 at 10am PST at KennyChesney.com.
On an appearance on TODAY, Chesney said the decision to play Sphere is an exciting opportunity to give fans a very unique experience.
“It’s gonna be such a shared experience for us,” Chesney told hosts Craig Melvin and Carson Daly. “We’ve been prepping a lot. This is such an original thing for us. We have to go reshoot everything and that’s what’s exciting about it to me, the newness of it, just taking our fans down a different neural pathway.”
