September 27, 2010 KENNY CHESNEY TALKS FOOTBALL & NEW CD ON ESPN MONDAY 9/27

NASHVILLE, TN -- Kenny Chesney, whose new album 'Hemingway's Whiskey' (BNA Records) is out September 28th, will spend the entire day Monday, September 27th at ESPN's studios in Bristol, CT. He'll primarily be talking about football, the inspiration for his "Boys of Fall" documentary about the passion of football and life lessons learned on the field.  The 'Boys of Fall,' documentary debuted on ESPN in August and airs again on ESPN 2 on Monday, Sept 27 at 7:00 pm ET. Chesney recently told the Associated Press that making the film "ended up being one of the best journeys of my life, and I think one of the most important things I've done in my career to this point."  His hit single, "The Boys of Fall," is nearing the top of singles chart.

At ESPN, Chesney will appear live on SportsCenter, Sports Nation, ESPNU, and many other shows, will tape appearances on NFL Live and CFB Live, and will do a live chat on ESPN.com. He's always happy to talk football because, he says, "Growing up in East Tennessee, football was a way of life. In Knoxville, at the University of Tennessee, the whole town just wraps its arms around them." Chesney, a wide receiver in high school who is now country music's top-drawing live act and still a Volunteers fan, says, "That's where I first learned how to work really hard - on the football field."
