Eric Church fans everywhere can now enjoy the middle installment of his Heart & Soul triple album. The country superstar’s & album, which was previously available only to his Church Choir fan club, is now available on CD, black vinyl and digitally.
Along with the moving “Through My Ray Bans,” dedicated to the fans he played for at Route 91 Harvest Country Music Festival, the & album also features four new songs–“Do Side,” “Kiss Her Goodbye,” “Mad Man” and “Lone Wolf”–plus his latest single, “Doing Life With Me.”
Like the successful bookends Heart and Soul, & is the result of Church’s time spent sequestered in North Carolina, writing and recording a song a day for nearly a month. The project earned a Best Country Solo Performance Grammy nomination, and also landed atop the Billboard charts.
Church replaced himself at the top of the all-genre Top Album Sales chart in back-to-back weeks, with all three albums landing in the top 10 concurrently. He became the first country artist to simultaneously occupy the two top spots on the Billboard Vinyl Albums chart since its inception in 2011 with Soul and &, respectively.
