With a stack of foot tapping country driven songs already unleashed, country music newcomer Abbey Pierce returns in 2025 with a brand-new single called ‘Down to Earth’ to complete her debut EP, ‘Soul Searchin’’! Elaborating on the meaning behind the track, Abbey explains how “Anxiety can sometimes manifest in a feeling that you’re floating in a space all on your own. But a solid partner can keep you grounded in reality when their love is a force of gravity. This love song is an ode to those people whose love penetrates the scariest of emotions.”
With extremely personal lyrics, backed by an evocative melody, Abbey describes how she “Wrote this song with just me and my guitar. Our band started playing it out at shows and it really took the shape of a 90s love song. I recorded it in the studio with my bandmates and I think we really captured the raw emotion behind the lyrics.” Ultimately, ‘Down to Earth’ is set to make waves for this up-and-coming country singer.
Abbey Pierce is native to “the Natural State” also known as Arkansas, USA. She discovered a love for performing at a very young age and spent her youth on stage in every pageant and talent show she was eligible to enter. She only began gigging as a singer-songwriter in 2018 after moving to a new region to discover a rich music scene that inspired her to chase her dreams of becoming a professional musician.
She bought a guitar, dusted off the years between her last performances, and taught herself to play enough cover songs to book shows. It was when the worldwide pandemic hit that she started exploring the craft of songwriting. She’s been working on leaning into her inspirations and finding her sound, which takes the shape of a unique, soulful blend of country and folk-rock with a hint of the blues. She performs regularly as an acoustic act as well as the lead vocalist in a five-piece outfit, the “Abbey Pierce Band.”
She balances a 9 to 5 gig as a project manager while burning the midnight oil to pursue her passion for music. Abbey is working to make the 5 to 9 become the 9 to 5, and she’s living by the words she wrote in one of her original tunes, “Don’t Quit Your Daydream.”
