I have become a huge Eric Church fan just got a hold of his new album "Chief" and it is awesome. The lead off single "Homeboy" continues to rise up the country charts.But the thing I love about Eric's music is, it doesn't sound like everything else out there. He has his own musical style that has a sense of edginess to his brand of country music. Sort of pushes the limits and the boundaries of country music today.

And if your an ERIC CHURCH fan like myself, Eric is offering a FREE bonus track "Lovin' Me Anyway" exclusively to fans that tweet or share the link to his website.

Eric says the name of his new album "CHIEF" was the nickname of his grandfather and himself. Eric's grandfather was the chief of police for about 30 years in Granite Falls, North Carolina a town where there both from.

Ironically, the Chief nickname became his on the road because of his trademark hat and sunglasses he started wearing every time he went on stage. He said, the band would make fun of him and started calling him Chief, not knowing that was grandfather's nickname.
