KCCS PRODUCTIONS’ syndicated BOB KINGSLEY’s COUNTRY TOP 40 will present the official 90-minute album premiere of BNA/NASHVILLE artist KENNY CHESNEY’s new CD, “Hemingway’s Whiskey,” hosted by KINGSLEY. The album is set for release on SEPTEMBER 28th.
Over 130 Country stations have already confirmed to broadcast the show, including WUSN/CHICAGO, WXTU/PHILADELPHIA, KPLX/DALLAS-FT. WORTH, WUBL/ATLANTA, KMPS/SEATTLE, WQYK/TAMPA, WKIS/MIAMI, KNCI/SACRAMENTO, KWJJ/PORTLAND, WDSY/PITTSBURGH and WKKT/CHARLOTTE.
KINGSLEY said: “I’m not surprised at the intense level of interest in this special. KENNY has spent the decade hitting them out of the park when it comes to singles and albums, and bringing them to the park in terms of concerts. He has proven over and over that he knows how to connect with his fans, and it sure looks like he’s done it again. ‘The Boys Of Fall’ is one of his fastest-rising singles ever, and it leads off an album’s worth of new music that is as heartfelt as anything he’s ever done. This special finds KENNY opening up about life and music in a way that is both enjoyable and very, very powerful. I’m very happy to be a part of it.”
Along with the CHESNEY “Hemingway’s Whiskey” premiere, KCCS PRODUCTIONS will be producing its annual BOB KINGSLEY’s CHRISTMAS IN AMERICA and the CT40 YEAR-END TOP 50 shows. To lock in exclusive broadcast rights in your market contact SHAWN STUDER at (817) 599-4099 ext. 2238 or shawn@ct40.com.
