Carly Pearce releases new Single ‘Next Girl’

Carly Pearce has dropped new single ‘Next Girl’ today.

A return to her roots and taking inspiration from 90s Country, ‘Next Girl’ is the follow-up to Pearce’s number one single ‘I Hope You’re Happy Now’ with Lee Brice.

ā€œCountry music always had these straight-talking women, who were so strong and so sassy,ā€ says Pearce. ā€œThey were flirty, funny, feisty ā€“ and they werenā€™t afraid of banjos, fiddles, mandolins,Ā steel guitar. Put all those things together, and itā€™s everything that pulled me to Country music as a little girl.ā€

The song is a collaboration with songwriters and producers Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne.

ā€œWe got together and just kept throwing out songs we loved, singing pieces of them,ā€ Pearce says of the song’s creation. ā€œThey both got everything I wanted to do like ‘That Kind of Girl,ā€™ ā€˜Blame It On Your Heart,ā€™ ā€˜Better Things To Do,ā€™ ā€˜Thereā€™s Your Trouble,ā€™ ā€˜Spilled Perfumeā€™ kind of stuff. The song just started tumbling together from there ā€“ and ā€˜Next Girlā€™ happened. It felt just like where Patty Loveless might be today, and we couldnā€™t wait to record it!ā€

Pearce was recently nominated for four awards at the CMAs – New Artist of the Year,Ā Song of the Year, Musical Event of the YearĀ andĀ Video of the Year. The winners will be announced at the CMA Awards show on 11th November.
