Today, GRAMMY, CMA and ACM Award-winning singer-songwriter Carly Pearce shares a final preview of her highly anticipated fourth studio album hummingbird(Big Machine Records), ahead of its June 7 arrival, with new song “fault line.”A self-proclaimed country music purist, Pearce’s musical sensibilities are on full display with “fault line” as she delivers a traditional country groove and clever lyrics penned alongside Nicolle Galyon, Shane McAnally and Jordan Reynolds.
“Some of my favorite songs were in the era of Tammy Wynette and George Jones,” said Pearce. “‘fault line’ is my take on writing one of those classic, ‘I’m gonna rip your head off’country songs. The playful angst in this song makes it one of my favorite moments on the record.”
Produced by Pearce, Shane McAnally, and Josh Osborne, hummingbirdmarks Pearce’s debut as a co-producer and fully represents her new musical chapter – one of forward motionencompassed by the symbolism of the hummingbird, representing the album’s themes of growth, humility, understanding, playfulness, and optimism. The 14-track collection features Pearce’s GRAMMY®-nominated, Top 10 bound, GOLD-certified single “we don’t fight anymore” (featuring Chris Stapleton), as well as the recently released fan favorite “my place”and the stirring title track “hummingbird.”
