Heart Life Music

By: Kenny Chesney, Holly Gleason

Narrated by: Kenny Chesney

*HEAR KENNY'S STORY IN HIS OWN VOICE AS HE READS THE AUDIOBOOK* INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * INSTANT USA TODAY BESTSELLER Heart Life Music is a love letter to the journey: all the places I’ve gone and how we got here. This book takes you on the ride. Knoxville. Moscow. Myrtle Beach. The Virgin Islands. Plentywood, Montana. Holmdel, New Jersey. Key West. New England. The Road. No Shoes Nation. Beyond. We’ve had a lot of fun, a bunch of challenges, a few moments of wondering “what the hell?”—and more love than any artist deserves. You’re gonna meet so many people, some you’d never expect to see crossing my path, whether it’s the Wailers, Willie Nelson, John Madden, or Grace Potter. Maybe you won’t be surprised at all. I just know this: A whole lot has happened. For anyone who’s found a piece of your life in any of my songs, this is for you. Open a cold drink, get out on your deck or your boat or wherever your happy space is, jump in, and live them along with me. And if you’ve got dreams, whatever they are, know they don’t always come easy. But if you believe, do the hard work, and keep coming back, you’d be amazed at what can happen. I’m a pretty average guy, so look at this—know you might could do it, too. It’s been a helluva trip around the sun.

I've always wanted to hear the stories behind the songs. Finally we get to hear them

The book takes you on the journey that is no shoes nation. Listening to the stories of the mindset Kenny Chesney was in when he made beloved albums is priceless

Life Experiences put into songs

I loved the way Kenny takes his life experiences and puts them into song.
Kenny captivates the listeners just like he does when he sings a song.

Long time fan - great audiobook, read by the man himself!

Loved hearing more about Kenny's journey. As a lifetime New England girl, loved hearing more about his connections to us all. Kenny is a wonderful human who writes and sings about such beautiful experiences. It was great to hear his story in more depth and connect to his albums that I heard as they each were released.

Was hoping for more...

Love Kenny's music. Saw him at Sphere in Vegas, May 2025 and it was the best concert experience I've ever been to! Now I know KC is a private person but this is a book about his life and I really didn't learn much more than I already knew. I'm a boater and love boats but I have no idea what kind of a boat KC has now. I don't know what kind of guitar he plays or how he got his first (real) guitar. He mentioned his business driver rolled a bus but gave no other details. I was just hoping to get to know the man a little more after this book and I feel I don't. I'm not putting the book down, it's good, but wish it was, well, better. The stories are very staccato and sometimes end abruptly. Oh, well. 🏴‍☠️

His honest openness of his life and his voice

Awesome book. Man what a journey and music. Love him and his music. Thank you for sharing your talent and life
