Having already spent much of his career breaking rules, defying expectations and going against the grain, Eric Church has topped himself with The Outsiders. Now, he's interested to see how the music is received, both within the Nashville establishment and in the world at large.
"It's an interesting time in country music—maybe in all music—because everything's up in the air and all the genre barriers are breaking down," he says. "With satellite radio, social media and the way people consume music now, people have access to every kind of music, and you just don't run into people now who only listen to one kind of music. People are smart enough to discern what's good, and if the music makes them feel something, then they'll respond.
"We're still gonna fit in the country genre, and that's fine, but it's crazy that people try to put all these constraints on music," Church concludes. "Music is universal; it breaks down language barriers and cultural barriers, and it speaks to people's souls on the deepest level. It's all just music, and The Outsiders is a stake in the ground, saying 'This is where we are now..' If it works, all bets are off. And that's gonna be fun."
