Kenny Chesney has a new, reflective song called “Guys Named Captain” which is more of a hushed recording than some of his other tunes. 

The song features Mac McAnally on acoustic guitar and John Hobbs on piano. This song closes the album "Here and Now." Chesney is an Ernest Hemingway fan and says that there is "a bit of The Old Man and The Sea to this song."

“Any time you find yourself near the water, you’ll find these guys,” Chesney explains, “tucked into a table in a corner, or sitting near the far end of the bar. The adventures they’ve had, places they’ve gone, the way they live their life for the sea... Free spirit might be too restricting a label for them. There’s nobody more loyal or more committed to their friends. Hell-raisers, heartbreakers, poets, pirates, they dream on the water and carry themselves with a whole other kind of strength. And it’s all in the song...”
