Kenny Chesney declares the 2023 "I Go Back Tour" with Kelsea Ballerini as a special guest

In 2023, Kenny Chesney will embark on a tour.

The country singer who is responsible for hit songs like “She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy,” “American Kids,” “Get Along,” and “When the Sun Goes Down” has announced his “I Go Back Tour” for 2023. Tickets for the tour are available for purchase starting at 10 a.m. on Friday, December 2.

The tour will make 21 stops, the first of which will be State College, Pennsylvania, on March 25. It will end on July 22 in Des Moines, Iowa.

This announcement follows Chesney’s “Here and Now Tour,” which took place in the summer of 2022 and saw him perform at a variety of stadiums across the country. His 2023 tour will feature a variety of stops at various venues.

“When a year is as hot and alive as 2022 was, you don’t want to try to recapture that magic. Or maybe it’s me. I still have the sounds of diesel engines and No Shoes Nation in my head,” Chesney said via his website.

“And that made me ask, ‘What else could I do? What would be something that would put me every bit as much in the music and give No Shoes Nation another reason to believe? How can we reach those people who might not come to stadium shows, who live a little off the obvious path, but who love this music every bit as much,” Chesney continued.

“And that’s when it hit me: ‘I Go Back.’ That song is about holding all those things that shaped you very close, recognizing how special they are – and keeping them alive any way you can. So, I decided that rather than just go repeat what we did, I wanted to take this band and these songs to a lot of the cities we played on our way up! Let’s call the tour I Go Back – and do just that,” the country singer said on his website.

Joining Chesney as his 2023 tour is the country singer behind “If You Go Down (I’m Goin’ Down Too),” Kelsea Ballerini, who released her new album, “Subject to Change” in September 2022.
