Country music legend Mark Chesnutt shared a social media post July 16 announcing his official return to the stage after undergoing emergency quadruple bypass surgery.
Chesnutt took to Instagram just one month after suffering serious medical issues that required immediate hospitalization. The “Too Cold at Home” star displayed a photograph of himself as a promotional ad, letting fans know that he will be performing a live show in Alabama, Oct. 9.
