Eric Church Releases an Ode to His Fans in “Through My Ray-Bans”

Eric Church’s new song, “Through My Ray-Bans” is available now on all streaming platforms. Take a listen to the meaningful track below.

One of country’s most profound lyricists and voices, Eric Church continues to deliver impactful songs to fans across the genre. Church’s brand new song “Through My Ray-Bans” is dedicated to the fans he played for at Route 91 Harvest Country Music Festival in 2017 and his longing to perform in front of a live crowd once again.

Written by the singer with Luke Laird and Barry Dean, “Through My Ray-Bans” reflects the story behind the performance, the tragedy that followed, and the poignancy of live music. According to a press release, “that moment of camaraderies and passion” became the muse for the song, as those memories will be forever etched in his mind and on his heart.

“I see a place where a moment in time / Is a kaleidoscope of color on a canvas of white / Where the voices roar at the noise of the poet’s rhyme / Would you believe my story or buy what I’m sellin’ / If I told you the tale I’m in the middle of tellin’ / Is as true as the blue in the grass or the green in the sky?”

Church reminds us all about how important live music truly is to our culture and our soul. As he shared in a spoken-word performance earlier this year, “I believe these halls will roar again. These stadiums will be deafening in the answer to this enemy. The silence of now will cower at the noise of soon… And I believe, I believe our best is yet to come. We shall rage. We shall roar. I cannot wait to see you again, through my Ray-Bans.” We cannot wait until that time comes again. Until then, let’s all enjoy this masterpiece.
