Kenny Chesney is releasing a new Christmas song this year titled “Christmas in Blue Chair Bay.”

“It seems like there are few times of the year when you can really unplug, really just be in the moment with your family and your friends – and celebrate how great life is,” Chesney says. “Over the last ten years, I’ve really come to appreciate that time off, and what those connections mean, and I wanted to share that feeling with my friends through music.”

This will be his first Christmas music since he released his 2003 album All I Want For Christmas Is A Real Good Tan.

“I don’t know that anything I’ll ever do around the holidays will have that kind of response,” Chesney laughs about the album that sold nearly a milllion copies. “But I do know that my family really loves Christmas – and I was in the mood, especially with the time I’ve been spending in Barbados with my rum, to try and distill how slow and sweet the holidays in the islands are when we can get there.”
