What is Eric Church’s net worth? Country singer-songwriter earns through music and furniture business
Eric Church, who would have normally turned down the NFL, is all set to give one of the biggest performances of his career on Sunday when he sings the National Anthem at the Super Bowl alongside Jazmine Sullivan. However, the recent chaos where pro-Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol on January 6 changed the country music star's traditional stance, prompting him to say yes to performing the national anthem.
Born in Granite Falls, North Carolina, Church worked with his father at a furniture upholstery company. Today, he runs his own company.

What is Eric Church’s net worth?
The singer-songwriter has a net worth of $14 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
While his hard work and talent in music earns him praise and income, Church’s furniture side business Highway to Home, which he launched in 2016, is a venture really close to home.
“My dad was in furniture for 35 years. He got run out of furniture when everything went to China, went overseas. Manufacturing in the country broke down. Everything left. But this was a way to work with my dad again. It was a way to look back at where I came from,” he said in a Rolling Stones report. “If I didn’t do music, I’d have taken a furniture job.”
Church and his family make it a point to give back to charity, and between his extensive catalog, tour revenue, and side business, he has the means.
