Eric Church Releases Huge '61 Days in Church' Live Set to Apple Music
Following an initial 30 songs, CMA
Entertainer of the Year nominee will regularly release more tracks from
his Holdin' My Own Tour
Eric Church has announced 61 Days in Church, a near definitive
account of his 2017 Holdin' My Own Tour. Beginning last week, the
ambitious singer-songwriter is releasing batches of live recordings from
his tour to Apple Music. Thirty songs are currently available with more
than 100 to follow. Following an exclusive two-week period with Apple
Music, the tracks will be available on all streaming services, with a
physical CD and vinyl package set for release on Record Store Day 2018
(April 21st).
Among the songs now available are hits like "How 'Bout You,"
"Homeboy" and "Talladega," along with fan favorites "Lightning," "Lotta
Boot Left to Fill" and "Sinners Like Me." Church has also made a number
of collaborations available, including his take on Bad Company's "Oh
Atlanta" with touring vocalist Joanna Cotten, and "Screw You, We're From
Texas" with Lone Star State icon Ray Wylie Hubbard.
Church
recorded more than 200 hours of music during his Holdin' My Own Tour, a
61-date run that regularly featured three-hour concerts with no opening
acts. The 61 Days in Church releases run in order of the tour dates he played, beginning with January 13th's kick-off in Lincoln, Nebraska.
Church was nominated for three CMA Awards when the nominations were revealed
on September 4th. He'll vie for Entertainer of the Year, Male Vocalist
of the Year and Musical Event of the Year for "Kill a Word," his
collaboration with Rhiannon Giddens, when the trophies are handed out
live on ABC on November 8th.
