BRAND NEW SINGLE: “What He Didn’t Do”
Carly Pearce is currently opening for Kenny Chesney on his Here and Now Tour, and during a recent fan Q & A, she shared a story about a special meet and greet she had on the first night of the tour. Carly recalled Kenny asking her to come to his bus to meet somebody. And Carly says, “I walked up there, and the cutest, tiniest little woman … and it was his mother, and she was like, ‘Kenny just loves you and I love your music, and I’m just so happy that you’re out here.’”
Besides the fact that Carly was honored Kenny Chesney’s mom wanted to meet her, she’s also very grateful to her, because Carly says, “She said to him on opening night, ‘You’re gonna sing with him aren’t you?’ And I was like, ‘I don’t know, am I?’ And now I sing with him.”
Thanks to Kenny’s mom, Carly joins Kenny on stage every night during his set and sings Grace Potter’s part on “You and Tequila.”
Carly Pearce – meeting Kenny’s mom :35
“He’s like, ‘Hey, can you come to my bus? I need you to meet somebody. And I walked up there, and the cutest, tiniest little woman, and it was his mother, and she was like, ‘Kenny just loves you and I love your music, and I’m just so happy that you’re out here.’ And what’s funny about that is, she said to him on opening night, ‘You’re gonna sing with him aren’t you?’ And I was like, ‘I don’t know, am I?’ And now I sing with him.”
