The “Sun Goes Down” tour will roll through Chicago on June 15 to kick off Soldier Field’s concert season, with country stars Kenny Chesney and the Zac Brown Band hitting the stage.

Chesney's new album "Born" will hit stores in late March, according to his website. The Zac Brown Band has won three Grammys in their career, including Best Country Album for "Uncaged" in 2013.

The acts will be joined by Megan Moroney and Uncle Kracker, according to organizers.

Two of the most iconic names in music history will bring their tour to Chicago the following week, as Billy Joel and Stevie Nicks will play a show at Soldier Field.

Joel released a new single called “Turn the Lights Back On” on Feb. 1, marking his first new release in several years.

Nicks has been nominated for eight Grammy Awards as a solo artist. She is also hitting numerous cities along with her appearances with Joel, including a show in St. Louis in May.

The show is sold out, but tickets remain available on the secondary market.

Touring with their new album “Hackney Diamonds,” the Rolling Stones will play a pair of shows in Chicago to cap off the month of June.
