  • Who is Carly Pearce?

    A whole lot has changed for Carly Pearce since she visited us on the Stars & Guitars stage in 2017. Her career has skyrocketed since she had her first No. 1 hit “Every Little Thing”… incidentally that was announced the day of the 2017 show!

    Fiercely rooted in the classics, the girl who left her Kentucky home and high school at 16 to take a job at Dollywood has grown into a woman who embraces the genre’s forward progression and is confident in what she wants to say. Lighting a fire with her debut album EVERY LITTLE THING  and the PLATINUM-certified history making title track, Carly has since become “Country’s ‘it’ girl” (ABC Radio), touring alongside Blake Shelton, Rascal Flatts and Luke Bryan. With the most CMA Awards nods for any new artist in 2020, she won Musical Event of the Year. In a year of uncertainty, Carly turned to the comfort of records she’s drawn inspiration from since her childhood dream started to take hold – Dolly, The Chicks, Trisha, Reba, Patty Loveless. Like those before, she leaned on her own intuitions with Top 30-and-rising single “Next Girl,” and a clever new video.  Carly explores more of a pivotal time with a seven-song collection called 29  (available now via Big Machine Records), finding creative simpatico with Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne following the unexpected death of her mentor and former producer busbee. With her catalogue already boasts over 1 billion streams, she opens up even more in Carly Pearce’s 29 – The Interview. As Carly marks a new chapter coming of age, she earns three ACM Awards nominations for Female Artist, Single  and Music Event of the Year  with her PLATINUM-certified, No. 1 duet with Lee Brice “I Hope You’re Happy Now.”

  • Carly Pearce's Biggest Hit

    There’s a lot of room for debate on Carly’s biggest hit. Obviously her duet with Lee Brice, “I Hope You’re Happy Now” is massive. And her new hit “Next Girl” is incredible. But we’re partial to the first No. 1 that we got to experience in 2017: “Every Little Thing.”
