Swimming in Champagne is the debut studio album by American singer Eric Heatherly, released in 2000.
[7] The album contains a cover of "Flowers on the Wall", originally recorded by the Statler Brothers in 1965.
The second and third singles were the title track and "Wrong Five O'Clock", which respectively reached numbers 46 and 32 on the country chart.
[10] Country Standard Time wrote that "the barroom anthems are tempered by the beautiful title ballad and the first single, a reworking of the Statler Brothers classic, 'Flowers On The Wall', that is different enough to succeed in the face of the original.
"[11] The Morning Call thought that "trafficking in typical rock-country hybrids, this freshly minted singer-songwriter pens tunes that tell a story, not unlike, say, John Mellencamp, Tom Petty or Johnny Cash.
