Kenny Chesney
Aug 30, 2010
BNA Records/Nashville artist Kenny Chesney's new album, "Hemingway's Whiskey," will include a deluxe limited edition package, featuring a double-disc CD and DVD. The package includes two bonus tracks and an in-depth conversation with Chesney about each of the songs. The album will be available to fans starting September 28th.
"Adding a few songs is kind of the same approach we take to our shows," said Chesney. "Every record is different, every night is different. You start feeling good and you want to do 10 extra minutes, 20 extra minutes, extra 3 hours -- whatever it is. This is exactly the same. We put two extra songs and conversation on the record because there are fans that have been a part of my life for a long time and really love our music and have really invested a lot emotionally. You can call it 'going the extra mile' or whatever. I wanted to give them something special."
The DVD is 30 minutes of content and includes a personal thank you from Kenny to the fans and a video cut by cut on each of the 13 tracks on the Deluxe Edition. One of the features is an in-studio look at the recording of "You & Tequila," the duet with indie rocker Grace Potter. "Music is so powerful and universal," said Chesney. "She's from Vermont and I'm from East Tennessee and we'd never sung together before...never even met but it just clicked."
The lead single from "Hemingway's Whiskey," is "The Boys of Fall," which has just entered the Top 10 on the Country charts. The song is now available at all digital retailers.
