Eric Church may not have been the first to blend modern country with bluesy Southern rock and outlaw honky-tonk, but his breakout album, Chief, made him a superstar. “Drink in My Hand” is a “Take This Job and Shove It” for a new generation of blue-collar good ol’ boys, while “Homeboy” is a heartfelt ballad lovingly addressing a younger brother headed down a dangerous path. And in blockbuster hit “Springsteen,” Church gives a nostalgia look back at the music from his formative years.
