NASHVILLE, Tenn. – With five shows underway of his 2025 Free The Machine Tour, Eric Church is expanding his run into 2026 with 24 new dates, including a stop in Atlanta at the award-winning State Farm Arena on Friday, March 20. Kicking off January 22 and 23 at The Anthem in Washington, D.C. Church will be joined across varying dates by special guests Kashus Culpepper, Caylee Hammack, Ella Langley, Ashley McBryde, Stephen Wilson Jr. and 49 Winchester (support bios are available HERE).
The Free The Machine Tour comes on the heels of Church’s May 2 release of his ninth studio album, Evangeline vs. The Machine. Anchored by the 10-time GRAMMY nominee’s uncompromising vision and genre-defying songwriting, the album arrived to critical acclaim, with Rolling Stone lauding it as “dazzling, challenging, and a masterwork,” while GRAMMY.com dubbed Church “one of country's most authentic and fearless artists,” adding the album “emphasizes his creative conviction in a musical climate defined by viral moments and AI threats.”
Tickets to all shows are available to the general public beginning next Friday, October 3 at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster.com. As always, premium members of the Church Choir will have early access to tickets through the Church Choir presale beginning Monday, September 29 at 10 a.m. local time. Premium members should check their email for presale details and can log in at EricChurch.com or the official Eric Church app to access their unique codes. A registration presale via Seated, available to non-premium Church Choir members and the general public, kicks off Tuesday, September 30 at 10 a.m. local time. To register, please visit EricChurch.com and sign up for your desired date.
Church’s 2025 run resumes tomorrow in Green Bay, Wisc. with special guests Marcus King Band.
