NASHVILLE, TN  [Thursday Mar.16.2006]  /RedBoxCode.com/ -- Kenny Chesney has announced that he's aiming the second leg of his The Road and the Radio tour at America's heartland, and he's bringing two of America's newest "heart" throbs to open for him, DIERKS BENTLEY and CARRIE UNDERWOOD.

The tour opens the second leg on June 1st in Evansville, Indiana.

"It's a funny thing about these kinda towns," Kenny observes. "They may not be big or flashy, but they're like where I come from: real basic, pretty simple and all heart. The people that live in those places, that come from those kinds of towns, they remind you about everything that's good about folks, so it's great to be able to start our next leg right smack in the middle of it all."
