Kenneth Arnold Chesney (born March 26, 1968 in Luttrell, Tennessee) is a mainstream American country music singer and songwriter, known for such works as No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems and When the Sun Goes Down. Chesney is known for his laid back style of pop music.

While some of Chesney's music shows the obvious influence of John Mellencamp and Jimmy Buffett (a point critics are quick to note), he often performs several traditional country songs at his shows (particularly, music from George Jones). He won the Country Music Association's Entertainer of the Year honor in 2004.

In January 2005, Chesney released the album Be As You Are: Songs from an Old Blue Chair, one of two albums he would release that year.
