Evangeline vs. The Machine

Eric Church, one of country music's most fearless storytellers, marks another ambitious and sonically rich chapter in his groundbreaking career with Evangeline vs. The Machine, available everywhere on May 2nd 2025. A self-proclaimed "album artist," Church has always championed the power of cohesive storytelling, and Evangeline vs. The Machine is no exception. "An album is a snapshot in time that lasts for all time," Church shares of the creative approach behind the highly-anticipated new project. "I believe in that time-tested tradition of making records that live and breathe as one piece of art – I think it's important." Lead single "Hands Of Time," impacting Country radio on March 24, is available now as a preview of that endeavor. "As I get older, I'm looking for things that make me feel not as old," Church explains of the track. "I can honestly say that when I hear music or see something from my past, I feel like I did then; I relate to what it was then. I really believe that a good way to handle that is with music."
