Eric Church Shares Behind The Scenes Video For New Tour

---

Eric Church has shared a behind the scenes video for his upcoming very first in-the-round The Gather Again Tour that he will be launching later this week.

He will be hitting the road to support his triple album, "Heart & Soul," which features the CMA nominated Single of the Year and Song of the Year, "Hell Of A View".

The trek is kicking off this Friday, September 17th in Lexington, KY at the Rupp Arena and will wrap up on May 20th of next year at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Church had this to say, "The hardest thing I've done thus far in my career is this setlist. It's not a normal record; it's three. So, you add 28 songs to what we already had going, which is a pretty stacked and packed setlist, and when you start to try to get rid of stuff and change it every night - which I'm committed to; we're still going to play the different set, we're going to give people different experiences - it has been maddening.

"It's the most musical we've ever been. To see the way the new music happens in the show is something that I'm excited just to see and, also, we're trying to reimagine songs that we've played 100 times, playing them different, and that's just fun. It's fun for us to do. There's going to be a lot of songs that fans aren't gonna recognize at first, that we're gonna start singing and they're going to go 'oh yeah, that's that song.' So, I think it's just fun after this many years to change it up and make it about music; make it musical. I'm just excited to see the reaction."

He said of his very first in-the-round tour, "I've never played a stage like this in my career... I've never seen anybody play one like this. There's really no front... It's kind of like a cage match. I mean once we get out there the crowd is everywhere. They're behind you, they're on the sides, and I love that.... The reason it's called The Gather Again Tour is we want people on top of us, and they will be."
