Carly Pearce is all set to release her latest album, titled Hummingbird.The 34-year-old songstress took a hiatus following her whirlwind success and attributed the break to herself in an interview with PEOPLE.
She confessed that she had set tough standards for herself after the success of her 2021 album, 29.
“For sure — I think that’s why it took me so long,” the “Next Girl” singer stated, adding, “I was very scared to follow it up.” Almost five years later, she feels ready to release new music, after turning her real-life divorce from fellow artist Michael Ray into musical triumph with her last album.
“This is definitely the proudest I’ve been of an album, hands down,” Pearce said, referring to Hummingbird.
She continued, “And I didn’t know if I was gonna be able to feel that way because of what 29 was, but I do.”
“I just put out an album that was wildly successful and I thought, oh, I’m fine, I’m fine. And then, you know, it starts to die down, and you realize, oh wait, I haven’t scratched the surface of what it means to heal,” Carly Pearce added, explaining her perspective on personal healing.
