Eric Church Has New Music Arriving This April – Heart & Soul

Reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year Eric Church sent a message to his Church Choir fan club announcing not one, but three new albums coming in April!

Heart, &, Soul are the names of the three projects, with the &, album coming out Tuesday, April 20th – it’s exclusively for members of the Church Choir.

Everyone will be able to access the other two albums – Heart arrives Friday April 16th, and the following Friday, April 23th Soul will be available.

Pre-orders for all three albums begin next Friday, January 29th.

Here’s Eric’s announcement…

As Eric says in the video, this collection of songs is the result of his 28 days spent in mountains of North Carolina.

When it came to the creative process, Eric says, “I’ve always been intrigued when a song is born in a writer room – there is a magic that happens there.” He adds, “I wanted to put that in the studio form. So, every day, we would write a song in the morning and we would record the song that night. Doing it that way allowed for the songwriters to get involved in the studio process and the musicians to be involved in the creative process. You felt a little bit like you were secretly doing something that was special, and you knew it… You started going, ‘hmm, wait ’til the world finds out about this.’”

Eric, and his team, including longtime producer Jay Joyce, kept turning out song after song to the point where they weren’t even sure where the end would be, “The interesting thing about this process is that Jay kept asking me the last three or four days, ‘Are we done?’ and at that time I didn’t know what the project was.”

Eric adds, “I kept saying ‘God, this is going to be really hard. There’s a lot here. Is this a double album? And if it’s a double album, how do we leave out these five or six songs?’ I am the hardest critic on making sure every song deserves to be on the record, and I beat this thing to death going ‘this can’t be that good.’ But, it was just a special, special time and a special, special project that I think will be among our best.”

The end result is three albums…
