There’s little doubt that Kenny Chesney has made his mark as a country music superstar. After his debut album, “In My Wildest Dreams”, was released by the independent Capricorn Records in 1994, Kenny has gone on to release thirteen more smash albums.

Eleven of Kenny’s first thirteen albums have been certified gold or higher. Although his debut on Capricorn was not the blockbuster that his later albums became, the singles from the album, “The Tin Man” and “Whatever It Takes” did touch the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks charts, extreme success for an independent release. Unfortunately, Capricorn Records did not continue to publish country music after that year.

Kenny Chesney has released more than thirty top ten country hits since his first release, including a whopping seventeen that peaked at number one. He has won four consecutive Entertainer of the Year American Country Music awards and six awards from the Country Music Association.

Seventeen of Kenny’s songs have hit number one, and his 2007 summer tour was the highest grossing country music tour of the year. One hit record is amazing; two is incredible. Seventeen is downright unbelievable.
