When Kenny Chesney released his debut album in 1993, there wasn't much to distinguish him from the crop of new hat-wearing singers on the country scene. He began to stand out in 1997, with his hit singles "When I Close My Eyes" and "Me and You," but his 1998 hit "That's Why I'm Here" truly hinted at what he could do with the right material. On Chesney's fifth release, EVERYWHERE WE GO, that early promise pays off in spades. Chesney's chosen a collection of excellent songs (from top writers like Paul Overstreet, Skip Ewing, and Kent Blazy), and has co-written a few more. His voice shows new depth and range, from the jaunty, uptempo "How Forever Feels" and "Life Is Good" to the tender "What I Need to Do" and the "Jerry Maguire"-inspired ballad "You Had Me From Hello." Another standout is "California," a song that gets its subject--sexual abuse--across without being heavy-handed. And you've got to give Chesney credit for having the guts to duet with Randy Travis, one of the finest vocalists in any genre. On "Baptism," the two singers spin a Gospel-flavored tale of redemption that's truly unique.
Hailing from Luttrell, TN, country heart-throb Kenny Chesney first made his mark in 1994 with his debut album, but it wasn't until a couple of years later that he started scoring major hits and making himself a household name. His straightforward, emotionally honest way with a romantic ballad is his trademark, distancing him from the gimmicky country-pop hat acts so plentiful in contemporary Nashville. In 1997, no less estimable a country personage than George Jones joined him on record, and he's garnered the respect of both young and old country audiences.
