Country music star Eric Church gave deeds to individual bricks from his new Nashville bar, Chief’s, to fans who have supported him throughout his career.
Fans received exclusive access to unreleased demos and footage as well as priority entry to the six-story bar and music venue.
“You’ve helped me build my career brick by brick, and I want the whole world to know that the building is yours,” Church said. “This is not just another club downtown. This is our house. I’ve been involved in every step of restoring this historic building into a place we can call our own and, because you’ve been with me every step of my career, I’m proud to dedicate a physical brick of the Chief’s building to each and every one of you.”

Church explained that once the bar opens, it will belong to the fans and patrons, just as his songs belong to them once released.
Church began his career in 2005 and has since released nine albums, with hits like “Drink in My Hand” and “Springsteen.”
“My songs are mine, until I release them, and then they’re never mine again,” Church said. “And this building’s a lot that way.”
“It’s been mine in the building of it, in the cultivating with the stories, the challenges, and the successes,” he added. “But once Chief’s opens, it’s not mine anymore. It belongs to the Choir. It belongs to the fans. It belongs to the patrons. It belongs to the stories they create there. It belongs to the music they listen to there and share from there. So, my story ends where theirs begins and that’s the essence of what you do musically and what we’re trying to do at Chief’s.”
“Rarely does an opportunity come along to be a part of something truly great,” Church and Morgan Wallen said of their purchase of “Field and Stream” magazine. “Part of something that has served as a trusted companion to generation after generation. Part of something that has helped shape how we experience and tell stories about the outdoors.”
“And that’s why we teamed up to preserve Field & Stream,” the statement said. “To lend our voices to this iconic American brand so that it can continue to inspire future generations to experience and enjoy the outdoors, just as it has for us and those who came before us. It’s time to return Field & Stream to its rightful home: into the hands of those who love the outdoors and the tales that come from being there.”
Chief’s will also house a broadcasting studio for his radio show.
In addition to the bar, Church owns a whiskey brand and recently partnered with Morgan Wallen to purchase Field & Stream magazine.
