Pearce is one of a slew of superstars set to take the stage at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium during CMA Fest. The lineup also includes artists such as Kelsea Ballerini, Luke Bryan, Jordan Davis, HARDY, Jelly Roll, Thomas Rhett, and many more. Pearce is slated to perform on June 9, just two days after the release of her album. 

The 14-song project, dumbed hummingbird, was produced by Pearce, Shane McAnally, and Josh Osborne. This marks the Kentucky native’s debut as a co-producer. 

Of the 14 songs, Pearce had a hand in writing `13 tracks, with the only outside cut being “things I don’t chase,” which was written by Robyn Dell’Unto, Kat Higgins, and Ava Supplesa. 

The album follows Pearce’s critically acclaimed 29: Written In Stone, which dropped in 2021. 

“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,” Pearce previously shared in a statement. 

Fans have already gotten a taste of several tracks off hummingbird, including the title track, the recently released “my place,” and her Top 15 and climbing single, “we  don’t fight anymore” featuring Chris Stapleton. 

The songstress has also teased several tracks during her live shows such as the sassy “truck on fire” and “trust issues.” 

2024 is shaping up to be another wildly successful year for Carly Pearce, who is currently on the road with Tim McGraw, serving as direct support on the Standing Room Only Tour. Touring with McGraw is a dream come true for Pearce, who looks up to him on many levels. 

“Tim McGraw is one of those artists that you forget how many decades he has had hits and has been successful and continues to elevate,” the singer/songwriter told Fox News Digital at the 2024 CMT Music Awards earlier this month. 

She continued, “It’s such a joy for me, I’m a ‘90s country fan through and through, I grew up on ’90s country, so to be able to be on tour with one of the pioneers… and he is the sweetest, kindest, most humble, genuine person.”

Following this trek, which is set to wrap on June 29, Pearce is confirmed to perform at various fairs and festivals around the U.S.

In 2025, she will embark on her headlining hummingbird uk/eu tour, which kicks off on February 9 in Stockholm, Sweden. This 14-stop tour will visit Oslo, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Amsterdam, London, Manchester and more before concluding on February 28 in Dublin.
