See Carly Pearce Explain Surprise Hit Ballad 'Every Little Thing'
"If you think about the biggest songs in our genre, the majority of them have been ballads," says the singer-songwriter
With the release of her debut single "Every Little Thing," Carly Pearce
has been turning heads in Nashville. The song – a ballad – has
impressed critics and fans alike, and roared into country radio's Top
10. It's no easy feat, considering the track's classic sound built on
Pearce's bluegrass roots.
"I think everybody comes from different backgrounds of what you grew up
listening to and what was around you and at your disposal, and for me it
was country music and bluegrass," she tells Rolling Stone Country. "People like Alison Krauss and the Dobro by Jerry Douglas from her band, it makes the sound.
Pearce co-wrote "Every Little Thing," based on a real-life breakup
experience, with her producer Busbee and Emily Shackleton. But the
singer says she's not defined by poignant heartbreakers.
"I'm not
just a sad girl who writes heartbreak songs and sings about guys who
crush my heart. I feel like you're going to hear my influences, my sassy
songs, fun songs," she says of her upcoming album. Titled Every Little Thing, the record will be released October 13th and Pearce will hit the road with Brett Young on his Caliville Tour.
