The project will allow fans to get to know the Country superstar in a way like never before as it details his life all the way from his childhood in East Tennessee to headlining some of music’s biggest arenas.
"I always said I'd never write a book," Chesney shared along the book announcement. “But I realized with the world moving in such fast forward motion, too much of what made Nashville, the music business and our lives great would be lost to the churn of the next click… too many things happened almost to be believed, let alone lived.”
Supporting Chesney as co-author is Holly Gleason, a music critic who once worked as Chesney’s publicist and is a co-writer on his song, “Better As A Memory.”
Kenny further detailed what fans can expect by saying "This is not my memoir, but something far better. It is almost a love letter to people who shaped and inspired me, the fans who've been there from tiny bars, radio stations who believed when no one else did, a team who just kept coming back, legends who gave me wisdom and opportunities and all the friends who've been there along the way.”
He concluded, "To me, that's where the music came from and this is the story of how it turned into the soundtrack for the way No Shoes Nation lives their lives, too."
Heart Life Music will be available Nov. 4, 2025.
