Get ready to raise one up, because ERIC CHURCH is officially coming back to the beach for Barefoot Country Music Fest 2026!
Known to his fans as The Chief, ERIC CHURCH is one of the most respected names in country music and an absolute force on stage. From his marathon live shows that run hours deep to his legendary catalog packed with hits like “Springsteen,” “Drink in My Hand,” “Talladega,” and “Record Year,” this is the kind of headliner that defines BCMF.
And let’s be real, when the Church Choir shows up, you feel it. That fierce loyalty and energy is about to take Wildwood Beach to another level.
Eric’s most recent project, the critically acclaimed Heart & Soul triple album, gave us his Gold-certified No. 1 “Hell of a View,” Top 5 hit “Heart On Fire,” and his newest single “Doing Life With Me” climbing the charts now. Pair that with his one-of-a-kind live show, whether it’s breaking stadium attendance records, headlining in-the-round tours, or singing the National Anthem at the Super Bowl and you know you’re in for a night you’ll never forget.
ERIC CHURCH now joins previously announced headliner POST MALONE, and trust the organisers as they are just getting started. Three more superstar headliners + 40+ artists are still on the way.
