Carly Pearce Crushes CMA Fest

By on June 16, 2022 in In The Press, Press Releases
NASHVILLE, TN / PITTSBURGH, PA (June 16, 2022) – It was like something from The Beatles’ “A Hard Day’s Night.” Locked in for all dates on Kenny Chesney’s wildly successful HERE AND NOW 2022 Tour, for record-breaking stadium shows and amphitheaters, the ACM and CMA Awards Female Artist/Vocalist of the Year’s commitment to the fans saw Pearce roll straight offstage from their nightly “You & Tequila” duet at Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, OH to Nashville for a non-stop CMA Fest experience!

Appearing on the CMA Close Up Stage for a brief performance and interview with revered journalist Marissa Moss, she then hit the Big Machine Store & Distillery for a fan Q&A before jetting over to SiriusXM’s Happy Hour at Margaritaville. Next up, the impossibly chic Noelle hosted Carly’s Closet pop-up store to benefit the Music Health Alliance. With items from Opry appearances, her “Next Girl” music video, and even the pink shoes Pearce wore when she won her very first ACM Award, she humbly greeted fans as they purchased accessories, dresses and other articles worn during significant milestones. Several bursting into tears as they shared their own stories, Pearce hugged and posed for pictures during the special afternoon. With TalkShopLive providing an online opportunity for fans not in Nashville, Pearce raised $10,356 dollars for the Music Health Alliance, which fills in gaps and solves healthcare-related issues for the people who make music happen.

“I wanted to keep the prices to where people could buy the things and not be afraid to wear them,” Pearce said. “But I also wanted those shoes, clothes and things that were part of my journey to create something more. Music Health Alliance has changed the fate of so many people onstage and behind the scenes, who better to give back to?”

“Carly Pearce has been one of classic country music’s strongest allies, from the Opry to the Hall of Fame,” says Music Health Alliance Founder & CEO TATUM ALLSEP. “But her commitment to the people who make the music, their health and ability to care for their loved ones makes us even prouder to call her our ally, because it’s artists like Carly who make Music Health Alliance strong.”

As celebrations and memories piled on throughout the day, the biggest moment for the recent Grand Ole Opry inductee and Kentucky Music Hall of Fame electee was to come with her own fan experience at Nissan Stadium. For a girl who left home at 16 to pursue her Country music dream, Pearce was elated to invite fellow Kentuckian Wynonna to the stage for an unannounced performance of “Why Not Me?” Clad in a pink mini dress, Pearce told the sold-out crowd how much the iconic vocalist meant to hear – and then Judd emerged from the wings for a performance picked up around the world.

“Wynonna freaking Judd!” Pearce marveled. “If you’d told my little 12-, 13-year old self that one day I’d stand onstage with one of the sheroes of my childhood and sing one of The Judds songs with her, I’d’ve fallen over. I mean, not only is she one of the greatest singers who ever lived, but those songs!”

Judd signaled her approval with a social media post that read: “I love @carlypearce and Carly loves me. The end. #carryingthetorch #proud”

Pearce finished and boarded her tour bus, racing to make her load-in for at Pittsburgh’s Heinz Field.

Having performed “What He Didn’t Do” during the set, telling the 53,000+ fans her song was going to radio on Monday, her latest slice of truth ended up being the week’s #1 Most Added song at stations nationwide. With her third No. 1 “Never Wanted To Be That Girl,” recently topping the charts, Country radio’s response after such a whirlwind weekend moved her.

“There’s real hope in seeing the things you deserve,” Pearce said. “We all need these reminders. It’s why I wanted this to be the last single from 29: Written in Stone. But for country radio to embrace it this way, I am so grateful for their support – and recognizing what this emotion means to people listening.”

Luke Combs BMI Party Kicks Off CMA Fest 2022

By on June 10, 2022 in Music, Special Events, The Latest

After a 2 year halt, CMA Fest kicked things off with a high energy parking lot show on Music Row at the legendary BMI Nashville headquarters, celebrating the massively successful run of number one songs from Luke Combs.  

Combs wanted to kick off CMA Fest this year with a No. 1 party unlike any before — and all were invited. 

The perennial hitmaker celebrated his eight consecutive chart-topping country radio hits June 8 with a one-night concert from the BMI parking lot in Nashville’s Music Rowneighborhood. The show happened a day before A-list country entertainers take up a four-night residency in downtown Nashville with the return of CMA Fest.

Combs was joined onstage by openers Hailey Whittier’s , Drew Parker and fellow songwriters Randy Montana, James McNair, Dan Isbell, Thomas Archer, Wyatt Durrette, Ray Fulcher, Shane Minor, Tyler Reeve, Jonathan Singleton and Rob Williford. The collaborators performed Combs’ seven chart-toppers from the 2019 “What You See Is What You Get” album: “Beer Never Broke My Heart,” “Even Though I’m Leaving,” “Does to Me,” “Lovin’ on You,” “Better Together,” Forever After All” and “Cold as You,” as well as “Beautiful Crazy” from the deluxe version of his debut album, “This One’s For You Too.”

Proceeds from the BMI Parking Lot Party benefited the BMI Foundation, a nonprofit that supports the creation, performance and study of music through awards, scholarships, grants and commissions.

The event was a huge success, proving that country music supporters desire to connect with one another through live performances and engagement. The future looks bright, not only for CMA Fest, but for all live music events and festivals  rebuilding and reconnecting the listeners and artists, giving hope to an industry and culture that has suffered a huge loss after a long anticipated comeback.
