Today, Grammy, CMA, and ACM Award-winning singer/songwriter Carly Pearce has shared a new single, “fault line.” The single serves as the final preview off her upcoming album, hummingbird, which will be released on June 7th via Big Machine Records.
A self-proclaimed country music purist, the musical sensibilities from Pearce are on full display with “fault line,” delivering traditional country groove and lyrics that she wrote alongside Nicolle Galyon, Shane McAnally, 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.”
Pearce also released the song’s accompanying video today, the latest in her “through the lens” series. Watch the video below and pre-order hummingbird here.
Produced by Pearce, Shane McAnally, and Josh Osborne, hummingbird marks he debut as a co-producer and fully represents her new musical chapter as she fully leans into her authentic country sound encompassed by the symbolism of the hummingbird, representing the album’s themes of growth, humility, understanding, playfulness, and optimism.
Discussing her inspirations for the hummingbird album, Pearce previously shared, “I have lived a lot of life in the last few years. Entering a new decade has brought a lot of maturity, growth, heartache, and healing. I am still a work in progress, but these songs represent my honesty, playfulness, and openness to keep growing.”
