First and foremost, I consider myself a songwriter.
Kenny Chesney

The beauty is that it's all a part of this wonderful dream I had in college. It's beautiful to see what it's turned into. It's the journey that I'm most proud of.
Kenny Chesney
Image
I'm proud of the fact that I'm at a point in my career that if I want to take a little bit of a left turn and make an album that is more hushed, more acoustic and more personal, that I can do it.
Kenny Chesney
Image
I'm glad I took that time to work really hard on the music. I feel the effects of that now in a positive way with my connection with the audience.
Kenny Chesney
Image
My fans get enough politics on TV every day. I want them to think for themselves. I don't want them to listen to me.
Kenny Chesney
Image
It sounds like a cliche, but it... you do sing about what you know about. And I grew up in a small town, and I grew up in a place where your whole world revolved around friends, family, school, and church, and sports.
Kenny Chesney
Image
There's this emotion we all feel of being overwhelmed at times, feeling that you can't get ahead. For me it's self-imposed because I'm so driven and I'm always going from project to project.

When I'm offstage, I never feel famous. I will never let anybody call a restaurant and say, We're with Kenny Chesney. Can you get us in? That's so pretentious. I'm pretty simple except for the fact that I have a really great boat and a little bit of money. When I'm offstage I don't feel like the person everybody sees.

Record labels today are much less patient: Artists have a bad record, and they're gone.
Kenny Chesney
Image
Believe it or not, I want to keep growing my audience.
Kenny Chesney
Image
There were [in 21] all those times in my life that I didn't know this was going to happen. I didn't know if anybody was going to care about our music.
Kenny Chesney
Image
Ive always been drawn to the ocean.
Kenny Chesney
Image
I have friends who have a normal family, kids and a dog, and I think I would blow my brains out. It's fine for them. But I'm such a free spirit, I feel more alive when I've got somewhere to go.
Kenny Chesney
Image
Me and my band and crew have always lived by the code: 'Work hard, play harder.'
Kenny Chesney
Image
I'm very liberal in some ways, and then I'm very conservative in others. I once asked my grandpa, Are you a Republican or a Democrat? He said, I'm a Democrat, but I'm saving up to be a Republican.
Kenny Chesney
Image
Just because I don't sing about the normal country themes doesn't mean my songs aren't country. I'd rather sing about having fun.
Kenny Chesney
Image
I truly believe that music is the most powerful thing we have.

I have 120 employees on the road every day, and about 30 other employees off the road.

I took a complete year off the road, but a big part of that year was making 'The Big Revival.' I needed that down time just so I could concentrate. The one thing that starts it all for us is the music. That's what you create in the studio. That's where the magic happens.

When I was playing for tips in college, I felt a fire in my soul. I had the same principle of focus that I had learned playing football.
