Carly Pearce Now ‘Gets’ Kenny Chesney’s ‘No Shoes Nation’

Carly Pearce is on the road with Kenny Chesney, opening shows for him on his current stadium tour, and it's a different experience for the CMA and ACM Female Vocalist of the Year.

Carly told us of performing in stadiums, "I'm like out there in my little 1500-seat theaters, just singin' my little songs, tellin' my stories, wearin' my big dresses. And this [tour] is like thousands and thousands of people, a catwalk that makes me almost die of a heart attack when I get to the end of it."

She added, "And now, I totally get the No Shoes Nation. I get why he is the mega-touring act that he is. It is a good challenge for me to kind of command such a massive situation. I can't even call it a room; it's like a situation."

Pearce posted about her recent stadium show in Atlanta, sharing a few images. She wrote, "Flowy vibes this past weekend in Atlanta."
