Country fans in New York’s Capital Region are in for a Valentine’s Day treat: Eric Church has added an Albany stop to his Free The Machine Tour, performing at MVP Arena on Saturday, February 14, 2026.
A Night of Unmatched Energy
Known for turning every concert into a near-spiritual experience, “The Chief” is promising another unforgettable evening filled with the passion and intensity that have made him one of country music’s biggest live acts. Adding even more excitement, Ella Langley, one of country’s fastest-rising stars, will open the show—making this a must-see double bill.
Celebrating 20 Years of Hits
The year 2026 also marks 20 years since Church released his debut single “How ’Bout You.” Since then, he’s built an arsenal of iconic songs such as Springsteen, Talladega, and his newest single, Hands of Time. His latest album, Evangeline vs. The Machine, continues to earn praise as another standout entry in his career.
