CHURCH IS BACK
By kncitom on July 12, 2018
Just days after the incredibly sad news that his brother Brandon passed away unexpectedly at the age of 36, Eric Church announced this morning that he has a new album on the way.
The new album will be called Desperate Man and is due Oct 5th and the first single will be the title trackAnd while the single isn’t “officially” released until tomorrow, members of his Church Choir fan club can download it today. The song is a raucous, hard-driving number that reminds us a little of the song “Chattanooga Lucy” from Eric’s last album, and the Rolling Stones’ Sympathy for the Devil. Check out the message Eric posted to Twitter earlier this morning (fast forward to about 1:05).

Meantime, A memorial scholarship fund has been set up in Brandon’s honor. The scholarship page reads: “This loving memorial is set up to honor Brandon E. Church, beloved son, brother, father and friend. In lieu of flowers, please pay forward a gift that will keep on giving to others through furthering their education. The Brandon E. Church Memorial Scholarship Fund will be used to bless others and honor a benevolent life. Thank you for showing your love and support to the Church family.”
