Rise to Fame

Chesney didn't pick up a guitar until he was 19 when his mother, a hairdresser, gave him one for Christmas. Chesney taught himself to play in three months and after graduating from college in 1992 he set off for the Nashville music scene where he took $125-a-week job writing songs at one of Nashville's many production houses.

Chesney caught his big break in 1999 with the song "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy," and in 2002 his album "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem" sold more than 3 million copies. The album he released earlier this year, "Be As You Are: Songs from a Big Blue Chair," debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, as have four out of five of his last albums. "The Road and the Radio" hits stores on Tuesday.

Chesney will be the opening at the Country Music Association Awards in New York on Nov. 15, and will also sing at the 33rd annual American Music Awards in Los Angeles on Nov. 22.
