NASHVILLE, TN (June 5, 2023) – Today, GRAMMY®, CMA and ACM-Award winning Country star Carly Pearce officially ushers in the next era of her musical journey with the announcement of her brand new single, “We Don’t Fight Anymore” (featuring Chris Stapleton), available everywhere on June 16 and officially impacting US Country radio on June 20 via Big Machine Records. Pre-save “We Don’t Fight Anymore” (featuring Chris Stapleton) HERE.
Written by Pearce alongside frequent collaborator Shane McAnally and Pete Good, “We Don’t Fight Anymore” was produced by McAnally, Josh Osborne, and Pearce. Marking the first new music since her critically-acclaimed third studio album 29: WRITTEN IN STONE, the single is an authentic display of Pearce’s musical sensibilities as she leans into her sound and cements her place as a transcendent storyteller.
“I’ve always wanted to write music that makes people feel something – whether that is feeling seen, less alone, happy or even uncomfortable. ‘We Don’t Fight Anymore’ felt like I was writing one of those stories that, whether or not we want to include it in our social media highlight reel, we’ve either been there or are living there right now,” Pearce says of the song’s origins. “Having Chris Stapleton join me on this song was a dream come true and he unlocked an element to the story that I didn’t even know it needed.”
In both celebration of capping her 29 chapter with her fourth career No. 1 song – the PLATINUM-certified “What He Didn’t Do” – and a nod to soon stepping into her next era, Pearce had fans and social media abuzz with a teaser post on Instagram last Wednesday that featured the blurred out “We Don’t Fight Anymore” single artwork. She continued the digital Easter eggs for eagle-eyed fans with additional posts throughout the weekend that steadily became more clear each day to unveil a new aspect of the song, culminating with her full reveal this morning.
Following today’s news, Pearce is gearing up for a packed week in Nashville during CMA Fest, where she will perform on the main stage at Nissan Stadium on June 8 at 9:55P CT.
Ahead of the performance – and in the true spirit of CMA Fest – Pearce is giving her fans the ultimate access with the opportunity to shop her closet at the 2nd annual Carly’s Closet which will take place from 4:00-6:00P CT at the Noelle Hotel. The pop-up shop will feature handpicked items of clothing, shoes, and accessories from her personal collection for purchase. Carly’s Closet will be cashless, accepting payments made with credit or debit cards.
To ensure that fans who cannot attend the pop-up in Nashville still have the opportunity to participate, Pearce has once again partnered with TalkShopLive to create an online shopping experience featuring exclusive items here for purchase beginning 4:00P CT on June 8. TalkShopLive is the leading live streaming, social selling online network, recognized by Fast Company magazine as one of the world’s Most Innovative Companies for 2023. Pearce is also excited to announce that the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals® (ASPCA®) is an official charitable partner of Carly’s Closet.
This Wednesday June 7, Pearce will partake as a panellist on the Women in Country panel alongside Hillary Scott, Lily Rose and Madeline Edwards at Billboard’s inaugural Billboard Country Live in Conversation – a one-day ticketed conference taking place at Marathon Music Works for fans and industry insiders.

ABOUT CARLY PEARCE: Fiercely rooted in the classics, the girl who left her Kentucky home and high school at 16 to take a job at Dollywood has grown into a woman who embraces the genre’s forward progression. GRAMMY® Award-winning singer-songwriter Carly Pearce has come a long way from the pain she felt writing her critically acclaimed and commercially lauded third studio album 29. Looking ahead, she closes that pivotal life chapter with her first live album 29: Written In Stone (Live From Music City), out now via Big Machine Records. Pearce continues to resonate with her honest lyrics and timeless musicality, earning her fourth No. 1 at Country radio with “What He Didn’t Do.” Lighting a fire with her debut album Every Little Thing and the PLATINUM-certified history-making title track, Carly’s 3X PLATINUM-certified “I Hope You’re Happy Now” with Lee Brice won both the 2020 CMA Awards Musical Event and 2021 ACM Awards Music Event, plus ACM Single of the Year. She picked up her second consecutive ACM Music Event of the Year in 2022 with Ashley McBryde duet “Never Wanted To Be That Girl,” Carly’s third No. 1 and the third duet between two solo women to top Billboard’s Country Airplay chart. The song also took home the 2022 CMA Musical Event of the Year and won a GRAMMY® Award for Best Country Duo/Group Performance, marking Pearce’s first and making history as the first female pairing to win in the category. The Grand Ole Opry and Kentucky Music Hall of Fame member recently joined Blake Shelton’s BACK TO THE HONKY TONK TOUR and made her 100th performance at the Grand Ole Opry. Honored as one of CMT’s 2022 Artists of The Year, the 2021 CMA Female Vocalist of the Year and 2022 ACM Awards Female Artist of the Year is clearly living out her childhood dream. On June 16, Pearce will officially step into the next chapter of her musical career with the release of her new single “We Don’t Fight Anymore” (featuring Chris Stapleton).
