Eric Church was recently given the North Carolina Award -- the highest honor in his home state.
In his acceptance speech he told the crowd, “North Carolina is where I became me. I became a songwriter. I became an artist. I became a man. And my mother and close friends, who are here tonight said to me, ‘Don’t forget who you are and whose you are.’… I belong to my God, my family, and North Carolina.”
Details are emerging about Chief -- Eric Church's entertainment venue on Lower Broadway in Nashville.
The six-story complex will feature a ticketed show space, a studio for live broadcasts, a barbeque restaurant and over three thousand concert posters from Eric's career.
He says, “Like everything we do with our music, the same care and consideration has gone into every detail of this place. It will be unrivaled downtown. I can’t wait to play here.”
Chief will open in 2023
