Country music star Eric Church revisited the Sioux Empire over the weekend with his "Holdin My Own Tour." While this isn't the first time Church has performed at the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center, this concert welcomed a bit of a twist for one Sioux Falls High School.

During each stop on this tour, Church is inviting a local choir to sing a song with him during the concert. The Chamber Choir at Lincoln High School was the lucky group at the tour stop in Sioux Falls.

In an article with KIKN Country in Sioux Falls, LHS choir director Linda Conrad said that the crew was "awesome to work with, and the experience the kids had was incredible."

The Grammy Foundation helps select which schools on the tour will get the privilege of performing a song with Church.
