TouchTunes to Promote Kenny Chesney’s Greatest Hits II

 

“Out Last Night” Certain to be a Top Jukebox Play This Summer

We went out last night like we swore we wouldn’t do
Drank too much beer last night a lot more than we wanted to
There were girls from Argentina and Arkansas, Maine, Alabama and Panama
All mixed together and having a ball

“Out Last Night” by Kenny Chesney from the album Greatest Hits II

 

NEW YORK – May 19, 2009—TouchTunes, the largest interactive entertainment network in North America, has announced a summer-long partnership with BNA Records to assist in the awareness for Kenny Chesney’s Greatest Hits II, available in stores and on TouchTunes digital jukeboxes across the nation starting May 19.  Featuring 15 tracks, GH II includes Chesney’s brand new “Out Last Night,” the party song destined to be the anthem of Summer 2009.

TouchTunes is also working with BNA to support Chesney’s Sun City Carnival Tour.  Next month, the company will be offering an exclusive sweepstakes for fans for a chance to win a VIP fly-away for two to attend one of his high-energy concert performances.  Details of the sweepstakes will be announced in the coming weeks.

“I think everyone can relate to a night out with friends at your favorite bar and the feeling you get when ‘your’ song comes on the jukebox,” said Vicki Saunders, VP digital media and music marketing, TouchTunes. “Kenny Chesney is a TouchTunes favorite and top performer at our more than 38,000 locations, and we expect his Greatest Hits II album will be a crowd pleaser too.”        

“TouchTunes is the perfect partner to distribute Kenny’s new music to loyal fans, and to expose him to new ones,” said Heather McBee, VP digital business, Sony Music Nashvillle.  "Their entertainment network reaches his fans in their own environment and gives them a chance to include Kenny everywhere in their lives."

“There’s nothing like a song on the jukebox,” said the singer/songwriter from East Tennessee. “When your song comes up…  you get a certain kind of rush. And no matter your mood, there’s always a song on the jukebox that can fix it. Being part of the digital jukebox nation like this is pretty cool.”
