Chris Pierce has been a singular voice in American roots music for more than two decades. Over the course of eight solo albums, many side projects, and more guest appearances than most could do in one lifetime, his powerful songs have given voice to the voiceless and shed light into dark and hidden corners of the American dream. Pierce’s newest record, Songs For The Heavy Hearted, captures moments in the lives of everyday people as they struggle with crisis and encapsulates everything that has been so powerful about his music to date.
