Eric Church redefines touring with Double Down Tour 2019

19 cities with back to back nights have been announced

Eric Church’s October 5th Desperate Man release is one of the year’s most anticipated albums, and now fans have even more reasons to look forward to its release date: 37 of them to be exact. Church’s 2019 Double Down Tour will see this month’s American Songwriter cover artist visit 19 cities to perform six albums worth of material across two very different nights of music as well as a stadium-sized tour stop in Nashville, Tennessee, more than doubling the capacity where he previously set Bridgestone Arena’s attendance record upon the finale stop of his Holdin’ My Own Tour in 2017.

“Not one unique show in each city, but two unique shows in each city. Not three hours, but six hours. We double down! Not Friday OR Saturday, but Friday AND Saturday, and we take over your fucking city and double down,” Church says in a social media video. “It’s going to be unique. And it’s going to be epic. I can’t wait to see you on the road.”

In a candid cover-story interview in July, Rolling Stone praised Church for “pushing boundaries in a way that sounds natural and unforced.” The same goes for his touring in 2019, again foregoing an opening act and instead treating fans to dynamic marathon sets across back-to-back nights.

In keeping with Church’s commitment to giving his fan club — known as the Church Choir — priority access, they will be able to purchase tickets during the fan club pre-sale. To keep scalpers at bay and to ensure tickets end up in the hands of real fans, after the fan club pre-sale, tickets will be sold during Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan pre-sale. All fans interested in priority access to tickets should get verified. Registration begins Friday, September 21st at 10 am CT.

Tickets inside Church’s stage will be made available exclusively to Church Choir members and only through the brand new Eric Church app. Church is taking full control of the very best seats inside the stage and offering them using cutting edge technology. Church Choir members will also have the opportunity to take advantage of exclusive hotel deals in all Double Down Tour cities plus additional surprises related to the tour.
