Kenny Chesney has already invited Jason Aldean and Eric Church to be part of his forthcoming Big Revival Tour.

Now he is letting a few smaller stars — Jake Owen, Cole Swindell and Chase Rice — in on the fun.

"When I came to town, I was a writer, trying to get my songs — and playing on a stool down on Lower Broadway," Chesney said in a press statement, via radio.com. "I didn't have nearly the success Cole and Chase are enjoying right now, but I know the difference getting your music in front of an audience makes. For both of these guys, who have a lot of energy and a real way of grabbing people, I think it's the perfect way to get the audience fired up for the show."

With Chesney, Aldean and Church on the bill, it is tough to care about the rest of the guys, though.

"It's not just about the big names," Chesney said. "It's about fresh faces people need to know. If I can turn people on, or remind them of an artist like Jake, I know they're gonna get a show that rocks them, but also opens up some new music. To me, that's the secret of a great show: what you know and what you find out. In just a few days, I'll have some more news to share that is going to step up this tour to a whole other level."
