Eric Church Rocks Out in ‘Hangin’ Around’ [LISTEN]

Eric Church fans are getting another sneak peek at the country superstar's new music. On Friday (Aug. 10), Church unveiled a snippet of "Hangin' Around," one of the new songs on his upcoming album Desperate Man.

Readers can press play above to hear the preview of "Hangin' Around." There's not much by way of lyrics: The clip finds Church repeating the words "hangin' around" over a bass-heavy groove; a chorus of "ooh, yeah"s and breathy "ahh"s add to the song's funky feel. "Hangin' Around" is Track No. 2 (of 11 total) on Desperate Man.

In addition to his new album's first single, its title track, Church has also shared a snippet of the song "Some of It." While the latter is more calming and reflective, "Desperate Man" also gives off '70s rock vibes.

In keeping with Church's commitment to giving his fan club his new music first, Church Choir members able to hear the preview of "Hangin' Around" a day earlier than the general public. Paid fan club members will automatically receive Desperate Man when it's released; the record is due out on Oct. 5.

Desperate Man was produced by Jay Joyce. Church and Joyce have a long history of collaborating on Church's studio albums, including his most recent album, Mr. Misunderstood.
