Eric Church’s ‘Evangeline vs. The Machine Comes Alive (Official Motion Picture Soundtrack)’ Out Today

February 13, 2026/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Fans at home can experience the magic of Eric Church‘s live show with today’s release of Evangeline vs. The Machine Comes Alive (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) via MCA.

The 19-track live album compliments the IMAX exclusive theater release of Evangeline vs. The Machine Comes Alive, with tickets to the remaining Feb. 14 showing of the limited engagement available now via IMAX.com/EricChurch. Both the concert film and the companion album (the first live album ever recorded at The Pinnacle in Nashville) showcase Church performing his eighth studio album front-to-back before transitioning into select hits, all reimagined with a six-piece band, horns, strings, and an eight-piece choir.

“The thing about the IMAX film is it freezes a moment in time. I’m going to get older; those fans are going to get older, but we froze that moment in time forever musically,” Church shared on CBS Mornings earlier this week. “If I want to watch a sporting event tonight…if I want to go to the game, that’s great. If I don’t, I’m going to watch it on television. You can’t do that with concerts, right? I can’t just tune in to who’s playing in Cleveland tonight. So, concerts are a little bit different that way, and that’s why the IMAX film mattered.”

The film and live album arrive as Church continues his “Free the Machine Tour” with upcoming dates in Albany, Little Rock, Kansas City, St. Louis, Fort Worth, and more.
