Eric Church discography

American country music artist Eric Church has released six studio albums, two live albums, two extended plays, and 27 singles (including six as a featured artist). He made his debut on the Billboard Hot Country Songs with his 2006 single "How 'Bout You". Church charted eight more singles between then and 2011 when he achieved his first number-one single with "Drink in My Hand". This would be the first of six solo number-one singles for him in his career, the other five being "Springsteen" in 2012, "Give Me Back My Hometown" and "Talladega" in 2014, "Record Year" in 2016, and "Some of It" in 2019. Church was also a featured artist on four other songs that have reached the top of the country music charts. These are Jason Aldean's "The Only Way I Know" (also featuring Luke Bryan) in 2012, Keith Urban's "Raise 'Em Up" in 2015, the multi-artist collaboration "Forever Country" in 2016 (credited to the Artists of Then, Now, and Forever), and Luke Combs' "Does to Me" in 2020.
