9
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: an update on the sign that was stolen from her hometown.

10
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,680

21
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 1: were talking hair when you walked in and kind of

22
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 1: just how the short look is in right now, and

23
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: yours is definitely shorter than normal. I know, thank you

26
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: Goals is sitting across from me. Carly's new album twenty

27
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: nine Written in Stone is out now, so coming up,

28
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: we're actually going to talk new music. We'll play the

29
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: new single, which would be awesome. Plus Carly is going

30
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: to perform some throwbacks for us, So Carly, can you

31
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: give us a hint of what you're going to be playing.

32
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: I am going to play two songs that I totally

33
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: wish I would have written, and when I go into

34
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: a writer's room I try to think of how to

35
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: recreate them every time. So these are women that inspired

36
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: you in your career, definitely for sure, so be sure

37
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: to hang out for that. So your new album, twenty nine,

38
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: Written in Stone is out now, and this is a

39
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: pretty heavy and emotional album. So there are some songs

40
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: on there that are very personal. Does it get hard

41
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: for you to perform those at times? I haven't performed

42
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 1: a lot of them out yet, so I think I'll

43
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: kind of see how it feels as I go. But

44
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: I think that for me, I've always been a situational

45
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: writer and somebody who writes about their life, and with

46
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 1: that comes kind of the emotions that maybe sometimes will

47
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: come up. But I think that's all part of the process. Yeah. Well,

48
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 1: I feel like it's going to be music that is

49
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: therapeutic for a lot of people, including you, and each

50
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: day it might hit you different. That's kind of the

51
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: fun of songwriting. I think you might see somebody in

52
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 1: the crowd that's really been moved by a lyric or

53
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: moved by a song, and that moves you or it

54
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: comes up. You know, women are more emotional sometimes on

55
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: certain days than others, so I could be crying or

56
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: mad or whatever, but that's kind of the beauty of it. Well,

57
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,600
Speaker 1: I'm about to play never Wanted to Be That Girl,

58
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: which you wrote with Ashley McBride and Shane mcinally super cool.

59
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: So how did this song come together with the three

60
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: of you? I love Ashley, I've always loved her voice,

61
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: I've always loved her music, and we've played quite a

62
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: few shows together and I just asked her if she

63
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,519
Speaker 1: would write with me, and we got in the room,

64
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: and I was kind of hoping that she would want

65
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: to write to do it, and she has later told

66
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: me that she was hoping that I would want to

67
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: write to do it. And so we just kind of

68
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: started thinking about different scenarios that could kind of play

69
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,399
Speaker 1: to two women. And we didn't want to touch anything

70
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: near or try to strive for douzy love you. So

71
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: we were trying to think about what what in a

72
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: relationship could these women both be dealing with, And we

73
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: came to the conclusion that sometimes in a relationship, in

74
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: a story like this, these two women can both be

75
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: very innocent in their feelings in their pursuit for love

76
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: and both get duped and have the exact same feeling.

77
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: And so when you and Ashley were working together on this,

78
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,640
Speaker 1: is there ever a conversation of who's going to get

79
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: the song? I mean, obviously there has to be, but

80
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: right that came later. I think it was just I

81
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: knew I wanted it to be a single, and she

82
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 1: was so excited that it was gonna be on my record.

83
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: I was working on a record when we wrote this song,

84
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: so I think it just naturally went that way. But um,

85
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: I'm just really excited to have a song out with her. Yeah,

86
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: well I'm gonna play it now. Here's Carly Pierce featuring

87
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 1: Ashley McBride. Never wanted to be that girl on Women

88
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: of iHeart Country. I never wanted to be that girl.

89
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: Wanted to hate myself this cat alonely only havent to

90
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: somebody else another one got fas like him, almost bloody

91
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: skin art. I never wanted to be that girl. So

92
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: you are out on the road right now with Lady A,

93
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,679
Speaker 1: which is awesome. Has Hillary Scott given you any great

94
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: advice like as a mentor being in this industry for

95
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: a bit longer than you have. She's one of my

96
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: closest friends in the industry and has been for a

97
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 1: long time, and she's just so wise and so kind,

98
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 1: and we spend a lot of time just chatting about

99
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: girl stuff but also relationships, and she's been there through

100
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: a lot of things that I've gone through and can

101
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 1: relate in different ways. Before she met her husband, and

102
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: I just I admire her in a lot of ways

103
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: of the way that she's just remained very humble and

104
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 1: true to herself throughout all of the amazing success that

105
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 1: they've had. And it's kind of nice to relate to

106
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: another girl out there that lives with a bunch of boys,

107
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: and so she understands that I'm still on one bus

108
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: and she can sympathize with me on that for sure.

109
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: So if you could go back and tell younger Carly

110
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 1: anything like do you have any advice for her? Oh? Gosh,

111
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: I have so much advice for her. I think the

112
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 1: biggest thing, and I've said this before, just I wanted

113
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: this to happen so badly that I think hearing no

114
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 1: I was here for almost eight years before or whatever

115
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 1: happened for me and just kind of got into a

116
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: mindset of almost blurring the line of when I was

117
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 1: being told no as an artist being told no as

118
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: a as a girl. And I think that I would

119
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: just tell myself to hold on and trust the process

120
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 1: and understand that it's going to happen in the right

121
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: time and you're gonna be okay. Yeah. I mean, you

122
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: started pursuing this at sixteen, dropping out going and doing

123
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 1: the whole Dollywood thing. And I guess I should just

124
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: clarify to the Hillary Scott thing, like I feel like

125
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: we're all in the same wheelhouse of age It's not

126
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 1: that she's been at this for so much longer, but

127
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: she grew up in the industry with her mom being

128
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: Linda Davis, and so she just has so much wisdoms

129
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: she does. I'm sure being with her is just really

130
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: beneficial too. You're about to perform a throwback for us,

131
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: which is one of my absolute favorite nineties country songs. Ever, Like,

132
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: when I listened to this, I'm taken back to sixteen.

133
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, because yep, that's how old I was

134
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: when this came out. I am driving around and my

135
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:59,119
Speaker 1: red Ford Bronco windows down, listening to Diana Carter Strawberry Wine.

136
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: So what moment does this song take you back to? You?

137
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 1: I grew up loving the ladies of the nineties, and

138
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: this was one of those songs that as a little

139
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: girl I played over and over and over, and I

140
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: remember the music video and I just constantly sang it

141
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: just because you kind of get lost in it. And

142
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: I think now hearing it, it makes me think of

143
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: just the innocence of your first love and the innocence

144
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: of being a teenager, and just that nostalgic feeling that

145
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: I get really attached to. I'm very nostalgic. Well, let's

146
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: get into it. Here's Carly Pearce performing her cover of

147
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: Strawberry Wine by Dana Carner on Women of Ihart Country.

148
00:07:50,040 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: He was working through college my grandpa's farm. I was

149
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 1: thirsting for knowledge. He had a car. Yeah, stuck somewhere

150
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: between a woman and a child, wanders the summer. We

151
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: found love growing wild on the banks of the river,

152
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: whe being in path. It's funny how those memories they last,

153
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: Extrawbary wild, subanteen hot you loon s, first taste of

154
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:31,319
Speaker 1: being on locks Stoppery one, Stoppery one, stopping locks stoppery one.

155
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: That's so good, Carlee've had a pretty big year so far,

156
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: winning all the awards. You were inducted into the Grand

157
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: ol Opry. I mean, the list goes on. So if

158
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: you just had to pick one highlight from this year,

159
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: what would it be? The Opry? That was my childhood

160
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: dream From the time I was very small living in Kentucky.

161
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: I used to like put on shows for my grandparents

162
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: and say I'm gonna plainly opery one day, um and

163
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 1: just to be asked to be to me a part

164
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: of the most prestigious family I could ever be a

165
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: part of is really special. So what was crazier being

166
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: invited by Dolly Pardon or being inducted by Trisia Yearwood.

167
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,319
Speaker 1: They were both equally crazy, two of my absolute heroes

168
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: to women that I feel like have paved the way

169
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: for people like me. And if I could have just

170
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: a fraction of the impact that either one of them

171
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: have had on country music, I would be very happy.

172
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,719
Speaker 1: So you're actually about to perform a throwback cover for us.

173
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: It's not Dolly and it's not Trisha Yearwood, though you're

174
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,640
Speaker 1: going to be playing some patty loveless. You don't even

175
00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: know who I am. Why is this song special to you?

176
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: I don't even know how to put into words how

177
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: perfect I think this song is. I think that it's

178
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: just so simple, and to me, the best country songs

179
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: are just simple and heartbreaking in the same sentence. And

180
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: her voice, for me, just has some kind of tone.

181
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: I'm such a tone person when it comes to voices,

182
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: and nobody really has ever had a tone quite like her.

183
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 1: She just reminds me of Kentucky. And this song makes

184
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: me kind of want to throw up. It's so sad. Well,

185
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to make you too sad, but we're

186
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: gonna go ahead and play this well, you're gonna perform it.

187
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: Here's Carly Pierce doing you don't even know who I

188
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 1: am by Patty Loveless on Women, by Her Country. She

189
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: left the car in the trouble way, she lefts the

190
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 1: keys in the door, she left the kids at a

191
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: moment's and the laundry pot upoone floor and she less

192
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: a turning on the pillow right away. It wouldn't be missed.

193
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: She'll have to know. In the kitchen next to the

194
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 1: girl surrealist said your Tony even now, whom you left

195
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: me a long time. I'm a go you Tony? Who am?

196
00:12:49,240 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: So what do you careify? Her new album twenty nine

197
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: Written in Stone is out now, so make sure you

198
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: go check that out wherever you get your music. We

199
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: want to support Carly as much as possible. But Carly,

200
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: before you go, I wanted to know if there are

201
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: any updates on the sign that was stolen in the hometown.

202
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: Because Carly got her own sign in Taylor Mill, Kentucky,

203
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: and like in less than a week. I know people

204
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: took it. People took it. I'm so mad about it

205
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: and put it up on my social media, and I

206
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: feel like it's become what everybody's asking me about. My

207
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: update is they have ordered a new sign and they're

208
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: going to put a new sign there, but they have

209
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,840
Speaker 1: not found it or found who took it. So my

210
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: parents think it's either somebody who really likes me or

211
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: really hates me. Yeah, so I'm hoping it's somebody that

212
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: really likes you and they're really enjoying that sign in

213
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: their room. Maybe, but still just don't do that. Yeah.

214
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: I was like, if you really want, I'll send you something,

215
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 1: just don't take my sign. Yeah, because a lot ever, yes,

216
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: a lot of ever. When into that night, I read

217
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: some police or some article in the place. We're talking

218
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 1: about how they purposefully put it up high to avoid

219
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 1: people even thinking about seeling it. But that didn't deter Yeah,

220
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: they said it was like a two person job. But

221
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: you know, my town is so small and they spent

222
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: so much time and money to do this for me,

223
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: and it just hurts my heart. The little mayor is

224
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 1: so sad. And I watched the interviews and I'm like,

225
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 1: oh my god, just put the signback. Guys, just take

226
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: it back. I'll give you meet and greets. So for

227
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 1: the women out there listening to the show now that

228
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 1: maybe have aspirations of getting into country music, what advice

229
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 1: do you have for them? I think to figure out

230
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 1: what makes you you and figure out just the lane

231
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: that you want to be and do it wholeheartedly. Don't

232
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: let anybody tell you that you can't. And for me,

233
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: I was a young girl in a town of six

234
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: thousand people that had a dream and I never I

235
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: was so innocent to think and also blessed to think

236
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 1: that I could never not do it. I just always

237
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: knew I could do it. And I just feel like,

238
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 1: if if there's anybody out there that wants to do this,

239
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 1: you can do it no matter where you come from,

240
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 1: or you can beat the odds. And how long were

241
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 1: you in Nashville before things started to pick up for you?

242
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: Almost eight years? I was an Airbnb queener. Yeah, so

243
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: you all, there's there's some hustle that goes into it,

244
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: trust the process, work work really hard. I always say,

245
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: outwork the boys. Yeah, and don't be afraid of the

246
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: word now exactly. Yeah. So thank you Carly Pierce for
