Carly Pearce is in love…
Garth Brooks is in love too…
Carly Pearce is in love and she’s singing about it.
Instead of releasing a third single from her debut album, Every Little Thing, she’s decided to put out “Closer to You” — a new song that reflects where she is in life. Carly and fellow country singer Michael Ray have been dating since earlier this year.
She says, “I am totally in love. I was trying to figure out — what is the perfect and right song to show the evolution of me in the last 18 months? It felt like this was exactly what I wanted to say and exactly where I’m at.”
Carly is currently working on a new record, which should be out next year.
A couple of weeks ago, Garth Brooks said that the CMA had turned him down when he asked to perform a ballad for his wife, Trisha Yearwood.
The CMA has decided to let Garth go through with his performance of the song on next week’s CMA Awards.
Garth says about the song, “It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard for someone you love. And, of course, I can’t help but think of Miss Yearwood. So, I’m calling it Trisha’s Song. But I didn’t have anything to do with writing it…She still hasn’t heard it. So the first time that she’ll hear it – the first time anybody’ll hear it – will be that night live on the CMAs.”
The 52nd annual CMA Awards air live from Nashville on November 14th on CBS.
