Carly Pearce has unveiled her fifth studio album, Honest Woman, with the project set to arrive on August 28th, 2026. It will feature Riley Green, Molly Tuttle and Dan Tyminski.

In a heartfelt post, the ‘truck on fire’ hitmaker explains the inspiration behind the new project, “Sometimes finding yourself means finding your way back home. For me, it meant coming home...to my truth, my story, and the woman I am at my core”.

Pearce expands, “These songs tell that story. They hold pieces of my heart, where I come from, and the journey that brought me here. I’m so proud of this album and I can’t wait to share it with you. My new album, “Honest Woman” is yours August 28th”.

The forthcoming record will consist of 16 songs, and will include the already-released singles, ‘Dream Come True’, ‘Church Girl’, ‘You Can Have Him’ and ‘If I Don't Leave I'm Gonna Stay’. The latter features blockbuster guest vocals from Riley Green.

In tandem with the new album announcement, Pearce has made another track, ‘She Don't’, available immediately, ensuring the anticipation remains sky-high ahead of August 28th. Shortly after the album's release, Pearce will embark on a series of two-night residencies across North America as part of her Honest Woman: Up Close Tour, promoted by Conundrum Wines and featuring country prodigy Belle Frantz.

It marks Pearce's first project under her new label of BBR Music Group and BMG, following the ‘Never Wanted to Be That Girl’ chart-topper's departure from her longstanding home of Blue Highway Records (formerly Big Machine Label Group).

Judging by the feature list, which includes two bluegrass legends, Molly Tuttle and Dan Tyminski, it seems Pearce will be exploring her Kentucky roots both thematically and sonically across the project. Tyminski appears on two tracks, ‘Who's Lying Here’ and ‘What If You Loved Me’, with Tuttle performing on the latter, too.
