It includes guest appearances from Eric Church, Taylor Swift, Grace Potter, Dave Matthews, and other artists.

[1] Rating it 3.5 out of 5 stars, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that "While Live in No Shoes Nation is quite slick in both its performance and production, part of its charm is that it's such a professional affair.

Chesney may possess an unassuming voice and his songs, even the rocking ones, are laid-back, but he knows how to pump up a crowd.

"[2] Live in No Shoes Nation debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200, becoming Chesney's eighth album to top the chart.

It sold in its first week 217,000 copies (219,000 equivalent album units), most of which were generated from sales of concert ticket/album bundle offers.
