An Exciting Announcement For Eric Church Fans

May 2, 2025, will be an exciting day for Eric Church fans. He is set to release an eight-song album titled Evangeline vs. the Machine.

This album features collaborations with writers Tucker Beathard, Casey Beathard, Monte Criswell, Luke Laird, Brett Warren, and Scooter Carusoe.

According to Church’s official website, he wants this new album to stand out from his previous work. He said,

“I’ve always let creativity be the muse. It’s been a compass for me. The people that I look up to in my career and the kind of musicians I gravitate to never did what I thought they were going to do next – and I love them for it. I never want our fans to get an album and go, ‘Oh, that’s like Chief or that’s like this.’ Painstakingly, I lose sleep at night to try to make sure that whatever we do creatively, they go, ‘Wow, that’s not what I thought.’ I think that’s my job as an artist.”

Check out the complete track list below.

  • 1.  Hands Of Time (Eric Church, Scooter Carusoe)
  • 2.  Bleed On Paper (Tucker Beathard, Casey Beathard, Monty Criswell)
  • 3.  Johnny (Eric Church, Luke Laird, Brett Warren)
  • 4.  Storm In Their Blood (Eric Church)
  • 5.  Darkest Hour (Eric Church)
  • 6.  Evangeline (Eric Church, Luke Laird, Barry Dean)
  • 7.  Rocket’s White Lincoln (Eric Church)
  • 8.  Clap Hands (Tom Waits)
