toby keith Lady Antebellum- Own the Night Luke Bryan 2

It’s sort of musical chairs on Billboard’s musical charts this week. Last week’s number-two is now number-one on the country songs chart. It’s Luke Bryan singing “I Don’t Want This Night to End.” Last week’s number-three is now number-two. It’s “You” from Chris Young. And, last week’s number-one drops to number-three. It’s Eric Church with a “Drink in My Hand.”

“Clancy’s Tavern” from Toby Keith now is number-one on Billboard’s country albums chart. “Own the Night” from Lady Antebellum is in second. And Luke Bryan’s “Tailgates and Tanlines” is in third.

Eric Church Reacts to ACM Award Nominations

Posted by TawnyTucker on January 27th, 2012

Eric Church

Eric Church surprised fans at the 2011 ACM Awards with his Awards show performance debut of his hit “Smoke A Little Smoke” from the RIAA Certified Gold sophomore release, Carolina. Many speculated it was the start of incredible things to come for the singer, and they were right. Additional milestones soon followed: No. 1 album debut on the Top 200 Billboard charts with Chief, his first-ever GRAMMY nomination for Album of the Year, his first No. 1 single with “Drink In My Hand,” which was recently RIAA Certified Gold, and now, his first industry-voted ACM nominations for Album of The Year for Chief, and Video of The Year for “Homeboy.”

“I’ve never minced words about the fact that my passion is making great records for the sake of the music,” says Church. “The fact that the ACM’s have nominated us for the album category is quite the honor and frankly the one I revere the most. “Homeboy,” both musically and visually, is a song that tells a compelling story. I have a very special place in my heart for the video, and I’m very grateful that it is getting recognized. It’s been one hell of a year!”

Turning heads out on his first-ever headlining arena tour, Eric Church: The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour, Church is seemingly on fire right now when it comes to inching closer to achieving sought-after megastar success. He set venue records in Southaven, MS over the weekend with a record attendance for a show in that arena – beating a record previously set with his performance alongside Jason Aldean.

To purchase tickets for Eric Church: The Blood, Sweat & Beers Tour, which includes special guest Brantley Gilbert, visit www.ericchurch.com. VIP Packages are also available for fans that want to experience an up-close, exclusive backstage acoustic concert.

The ACM Awards winner for the Album of the Year and Video of The Year categories will be announced LIVE on CBS on Sunday, April 1st at 7 p.m. CT / 8 p.m. ET.
