Download Eric Church's Bonus Track Free
![Can’t get enough of Eric Church’s latest album, <em>Chief</em>? The singer is offering a free, bonus track, “Lovin’ Me Anyway,” exclusively to fans that tweet or share the link to his website. Eric says the new album takes its name from both his grandfather and himself. <em>“Chief was my grandpa’s nickname, actually he was chief of police for about 30 years in the town we were from, Granite Falls, North Carolina. Interestingly, and ironically, it became my nickname on the road. When it’s show time for me, we put the hat and sunglasses on, and the band started making fun of me. And they would say, ‘Chief, what’s up, Chief? Chief time. Showtime. And it stuck. And they had no idea it was my grandpa’s nickname.”</em> Visit <em><a href="http://www.ericchurch.com/">EricChurch.com</a></em> to get your digital copy of the bonus song from <em>Chief</em>.](http://media.trb.com/media/thumbnails/story/2011-08/63683177-02040932.jpg "Can’t get enough of Eric Church’s latest album, <em>Chief</em>?
