The Pierces

The Pierces, an American pop-rock band that consists of sisters Allison Pierce and Catherine Pierce, have made 2011 a year to remember. Their music career started in 2000, where both were attending Auburn University. From there, a friend of theirs sent a tape to a record company in Nashville, which would later result in the release of the their debut album The Pierces. In 2005, they released their second album, Light of the Moon. Their big break came in 2007 when their third album, Thirteen Tales of Love and Revenge, was released and received good reviews. It also peaked at #25 on the US Heatseekers charts. The Pierces have also appeared on the hit television series, Gossip Girl. Their work has also been featured shows on Dexter, Charmed, Ghost Whisperer, and Pretty Little Liars. The latest album, You & I, was released earlier this year. They also embarked on their first U.S. tour this past June.

In our exclusive interview with the sister duo, they talk about several topics such as future plans on where they wish to perform, what type of venues they enjoy performing at, how difficult it can be to make it big in the U.S., the music identities and depictions of their last two albums, influences, the meaning behind some of the tracks, and much more!
