Eric Church has become one of the biggest names in modern country music, and rightfully so.
Of course, there is much more to know about the beloved country music star.
Church got his big break in 2005 when he was signed by Capitol Nashville and released his debut album.
“It’s two different guys.
The singer also uses the name for his charityChief Cares.
Why does Eric Church always wear sunglasses?
Over the years, plenty of celebrities have created iconic signature looks.
In fact, he had a very practical reason for sporting the sunglasses.
After someone suggested that he wear sunglasses, he never looked back.
So I ended up being blind on stage.”
He continued, “Someone suggested glasses, and it worked.
What’s funny is it stuck.
It was never thought out.
We never thought, ‘This would be good.’
In fact, in addition to his musical abilities, the star also has an array of other interests.
Church went to college, where he graduated with a degree in marketing from Appalachian State University.
He even played golf, but he had an ulterior motive for that move.
However, when Swift was just starting out, Church inadvertently helped her career in a big way.
After Church’s exit, Swift took his spot as the opener, which helped launch her iconic career.
“She wanted to verify there was no bad blood.
She had just had the ‘Tim McGraw’ song.
I joked with her and said, ‘You owe me your first gold album.’
I still have it,” Church said at the Country Radio Seminar in Nashville (viaThe Tennessean).
“It’s in the Hall of Fame, I think.
It said, ‘Eric, thanks for playing too long and too loud on the Rascal Flatts tour.
I sincerely appreciate it,'” he added.
“The clot was where it tried to heal.
But it kept backing up, backing up.
And like any clot, when you get enough pressure, it’s gonna blow.”
