![]() ![]() Laid-back, beach vibe videos playing in the background complimented Chesney's performance. Only one single, "Get Along", was featured from his 2018 album bearing the name of the tour, "Songs for the Saints". He even nabbed a few license plates from nearby audience members that donned lyrics from his songs, a collection that has become rather extensive throughout his years on tour. The four-time CMA Entertainer of the Year packed several hit tracks in just about two hours and took every opportunity to acknowledge the energy of the crowd that totaled nearly 13,000. Chesney mainstays, such as "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems", "When the Sun Goes Down", "Young" and "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" were on the docket and brought the fans to their feet. Similar to his 2018 tour, Chesney opened with crowd-pleaser, "Beer in Mexico". The delay lasted a mere 15 minutes before the man of the hour bursted onto the scene. Little did fans know that severe thunderstorms were passing through Des Moines, which caused a brief power outage. When it became Chesney's turn to light up the stage (no pun intended), his introduction video was cut short. Their off-stage friendship is just as harmonious as it is on-stage. ![]() ![]() And similar to last year on the "Trip Around the Sun Tour", Murphy would accompany Chesney to bring the audience, "Everything's Gonna Be Alright". Murphy gave fans a blend of his older hits as well as tracks from his 2018 album, "No Zip Code". Murphy has also worked alongside other country music stars, including: Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean and Jake Owen among many others. He also collaborated with Chesney on "Live a Little", "Pirate Flag" and "Bar at the End of the World". In 2006, Murphy wrote Chesney's "Living in Fast Forward", which became a number one single. Few, however, know about Murphy's resume in songwriting. Many know Murphy for his bar ballad, "Dust on the Bottle", as well as "Party Crowd" (the most-played country music song in 1995). It was only fitting that Murphy would tag along on Chesney's tour, as their roots date back several years. Jones has had the rare opportunity to tour with country music's biggest artists and is starting to pave her own path to stardom.Īccomplished country music singer and songwriter, David Lee Murphy, followed Jones. Later in the evening, Jones would join Chesney on stage to sing fan-favorite, "You and Tequila". Jones performed songs from her 2018 album, "Bare Feet", as well as her latest single, "Chasin' Me" (a song regularly played on Chesney's Sirius XM channel, "No Shoes Radio"). From Parrotheads to No Shoes Nation, Jones has become a familiar face and voice to those who cling to the island life. In the same year she signed with Buffett's record label, Mailboat Records, which boasts a well-known cast of artists, such as: Mac McAnally, Bret Michaels, Sammy Hagar, Mishka and even Jeff Bridges. And in 2018, Jones opened for Jimmy Buffett (which also included a stop in Des Moines). In 2017, she opened for Zac Brown Band during their "Welcome Home Tour". Jones, an up-and-coming singer-songwriter from New York, is no stranger to opening for big acts. The evening started with the pairing of Caroline Jones and David Lee Murphy. ![]()
