Eric Church Announces New Live Album For 2013

With the fall leg of his arena headlining tour, The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour, kicking off Sept. 13, Eric Church reveals plans for an early 2013 live album release. For his first-ever live album, Church will record back-to-back shows in Chattanooga, Tenn. at Tivoli Theatre on Oct. 8-9, 2012.

The new live album follows Church's platinum-selling Chief, which has spawned four hit singles "Springsteen," "Drink in My Hand," "Homeboy" and "Creepin'." The singer-songwriter recently told Billboard that he's "not anywhere close" to an album of new material, and that he plans on utilizing 2013 to write and record his next set of tunes.

A release date has not been set for the new album yet.
