One of the biggest tours of the summer hands down has been the Spread the Love Tour with country superstar Kenny Chesney. With a headliner as big as that and openers such as Old Dominion, Miranda Lambert and Sam Hunt, there is not one thing that could go wrong. While the fans have greatly enjoyed the shows in the warmer months, Hunt feels the exact same way.

After getting to know his tour mates throughout his time on the road, Hunt’s gotten to find that Chesney is as cool as he thought he would be. Hunt enjoys the hospitality that Chesney gives everyone while out and about, and that’s exactly what Hunt was looking for when it came to getting to work with someone like him.

“He’s been awesome so far. He’s as advertised. Everybody, before getting into this, told me how great he was as a host on a tour like this, and he’s lived up to that reputation. He’s gone above and beyond for us and offered us the same opportunities that he has as the headliner, and that’s special. I’ve been fortunate enough to have that kind of treatment as I’ve come up over the past couple of years, and that’s just the way you’re supposed to do it. So, I appreciate that from Kenny. He’s a class act,” Hunt said recently.

While the tour only has two more stadium dates for the summer, Hunt is grateful for the opportunity to be out on the road with his fellow musicians. He’ll follow up the Spread the Love Tour with bringing the fun on the Carnival Live Cruise in October. Tickets for the cruise are available on Hunt’s website HERE.
