Carly Pearce’s ‘Truck On Fire’ Video Is A Wild Revenge Fantasy

Carly Pearce unveiled the official music video for her single “Truck on Fire” from her critically acclaimed fourth studio album Hummingbird and the video has some spice to it.

The music video transports the viewer to a small town and sees Carly live out a classic revenge fantasy, taking matters into her own hands by torching the beloved truck of a cheating ex. Directed by Carly’s longtime collaborator Alexa Campbell, “Truck on Fire” is her first official music video to be released since she won the CMT Award for Collaborative Video of the Year in April for her GRAMMY-nominated single "We Don’t Fight Anymore" featuring Chris Stapleton.

The country star told us of the song, "No one wants to be cheated on, but everyone wants to seek revenge. I wrote this song for every girl who has gone through a similar situation and dreams of wreaking havoc on her ex."

Pearce has gained a reputation in Nashville as a solid songwriter. And she knows a good song when she hears it. She writes many of her own songs and co-writes with other artists (and also records songs written by other songwriters.) On her 2020 sophomore album, she recorded songs co-written by Thomas Rhett, Luke Combs, Kelsea Ballerini, and Little Big Town’s Phillip Sweet & Jimi Westbrook.

For 2021's 29: Written in Stone, she recorded another song co-written by Kelsea Ballerini, as well as songs that were co-written by Matthew Ramsey of Old Dominion and Ashley McBryde. Carly’s “Truck on Fire,” is one she co-wrote with Lady A’s Charles Kelley.

Carly says she loves turning to her famous friends when she’s looking for songs to record because they bring a unique perspective and knowledge to the songwriting process. She told us, "There are some really amazing artists and songwriters, and I want to celebrate that. I mean, I love writing songs and I will always be a songwriter, but it was really cool for me to kind of call on my friends that are artists. And I had never written a song with another artist in my life until Luke (Combs) and I wrote."

She added, "But there’s just something that I feel like artists can bring to the table vocally, artists can bring to the table just from a knowledge of being out on the road and knowing kind of what people want and what people gravitate towards. And I just think it’s really cool to see. And I think you’re gonna see more and more of it with people like Thomas (Rhett) and Luke (Combs) and Kelsea (Ballerini) and hopefully me. I would love to have cuts with other artists.”
