00:00All right, she's going to be here on Friday with Blake Shelton and Jackson Dean.
00:04She will now always be known as a Grammy Award winning artist.
00:08Ladies and gentlemen, Carly Pearce.
00:11Hello.
00:12How are you?
00:14I'm so good. How are you?
00:15I'm doing great. You're just stacking trophies at the house.
00:18I know, truly. I feel like I need to find another place.
00:22It's actually pretty cool, though.
00:24I mean, I will tell you, this one was not as emotional as your, what was it, CMA one?
00:28Were you kind of freaked out a little bit on stage as you were giving your speech, right?
00:33I definitely was freaked out.
00:35I don't think anything will top that CMA moment for me when I won CMA.
00:39I was definitely not expecting us to win that Grammy.
00:44Well, I'll tell you what, the Grammy, you and Ashley McBride just absolutely stole it.
00:49It was great. It's a great song. You deserved it.
00:51And like I said, you'll always be known as a Grammy Award winning artist.
00:54How cool is that?
00:55That is really mind-blowing.
00:57And I think that'll take me a second to let it sink in.
01:00I love it.
01:01Talking to Carly Pierce right now.
01:02Carly, you're going to be here on Friday with Blake Shelton.
01:05This is going to be a fun tour, huh?
01:07I am so excited. I love Blake. He's super fun.
01:10Does he give you notes at all?
01:13No. I mean, I guess he could if he wanted to, but he hasn't.
01:17We'll see if he does.
01:18Yeah, and I know everybody's asking you probably, but have you had any interactions with Gwen?
01:22Not yet. She hasn't been out here yet.
01:24I asked him when she was coming. He said he told me when, so it's not yet.
01:28So I will be hanging out.
01:29Wait a minute. You know when she's coming out on tour.
01:32Any chance she's going to be here on Friday?
01:35I don't know. Maybe. Who knows?
01:36Carly, you're so cryptic. It's unbelievable.
01:38I am cryptic. Everything's cryptic.
01:40You know, you recently said, I wish I could go through a divorce every time I was writing an album because it helps a lot.
01:46Are you still standing by that?
01:48I mean, if I could have something to inspire me in the way that my divorce inspired me to write music, and it worked like it did.
01:57Yeah, I probably would. No, I'm joking.
01:58No, I just mean that that album was super easy to write because I was going through so much at the time.
02:04And as a songwriter, you want to be inspired. So I was definitely inspired.
02:09On that note, why do you think it is easier to write a sadder song than a happier song?
02:14I don't know. I definitely find myself in a writing room gravitating towards sad songs 95% of the time, even when I'm happy.
02:24Is it just one of those things where the emotions are flowing a lot better than they are when you're happy or what?
02:28I think so. I think you're just like more inspired. I think when you're happy, like there's not a lot of shit else in your life.
02:33So you're like, well, I mean, there's only like a few things you can say about this.
02:38Yeah, absolutely. Talking to Carly Pierce right now. Good to be here Friday with Blake Shelton and Jackson Dean.
02:43What is next for Carly Pierce? Like what is on? I mean, you see a lot of these artists getting on Yellowstone and going to TV and maybe being a judge on a reality show or whatever.
02:52Like what is something that you see yourself doing maybe next five years, something that you'd want to pivot to?
02:58You know, I would love, I mean, I look at people like Riva and Nolly and they definitely like continue to raise, they've risen the bar outside of just music.
03:09I don't really know what that looks like for me. I don't know if that's acting or if that's, you know, my own line of something or whatever.
03:16But I definitely want to figure out what that next way for me to raise the bar is. So stay tuned. Not sure.
03:23So you have to stay tuned to see if Gwen comes and then also what your next move is.
03:27Stay tuned, you know.
03:28A lot going on. Very cool. You got to be pretty excited, too, about Jackson Dean being on this tour.
03:34I mean, we got to see him at an acoustic performance here in town and we went, oh, this guy's just a beast.
03:40Jackson is so good. I just, I think he's going to be one of those artists that in five years we're going to go, oh my gosh, remember when he busted onto the scene?
03:49And he's just, he's an amazing singer, an amazing artist, really.
03:54Who's doing the Wednesday Wine Nights now? Who's all involved? Because I know these are a big deal to you.
03:58Who's on the guest list for this these days?
04:00Oh, you know, it's pretty much just my band and I. And last night it was Blake Shelton as well.
04:06So I definitely...
04:07That's awesome.
04:09Yep. Blake was hanging, too.
04:11Well, listen, I'm excited that you called in today. We're excited to see you on Friday with Blake Shelton and Jackson Dean.
04:17Let me ask you this before I let you go. Who is an artist we need to watch for that maybe we have not heard about yet?
04:22Oh.
04:24Carter Faith.
04:25All right. Carter Faith. Carter Faith. Coming highly recommended from Carly Pierce.
04:30Carly Pierce, we will see you Friday.
04:32See ya. Thank you.
