Pierce has headlined tours worldwide\, opening for Neil Young\, B.B. King\, Seal\, Al Green\, Jill Scott\, and Aaron Neville among others. His folk/Americana album\, American Silence garnered critical acclaim from the likes of NPR\, Rolling Stone and NoDepression. Acoustic Guitar praises the project as: “Soulful\, wise and empathetic." PopMatters named American Silence the #1 Best Folk Album of 2021. “Chris Pierce is one of the most important American songwriters working today.” – Nic Harcourt\, KCSN Los Angeles  ​At a young age\, Pierce developed a rare hearing disorder called Otosclerosis that led to the loss of hearing in one ear and partial deafness in the other\, a setback that would deter many young musicians forever. The reality\, however\, fueled his passion and determination all the more\, forcing him to re-learn almost everything he had known prior to his condition. To Pierce\, music was\, and still is\, an unconditional companion. In addition to his solo career\, Chris Pierce is a frequent radio co-host on Sirius XM’s “Prisms: the Sound of Color\,” performs/records as War & Pierce (with Sunny War)\, and with Americana/roots band Leon Creek\, and has made appearances with the Black Opry Revue. He is also a college professor\, specializing in music business & songwriting\, and has penned a blues opera for stage. More praise for Pierce: “I haven’t been so deeply\, deeply moved by just a person and their guitar like this in a long time.” (NPR Music) “Passionate\, well constructed\, generously spirited protest music that can’t be ignored\,” (Americana UK) “Pierce’s take on soul is heart-wrenching\, achingly honest\, raw and authentic.” (L.A.
