From an Oklahoma farm girl to a Country superstar, Carrie is the perfect example of the joy that can come from chasing your dreams, and that’s exactly what she wants to encourage all of her fans to do.
“For anybody… the world is yours!” Carrie said when asked what advice she has for members of the LGBTQ+ community that look up to her. “Don’t be afraid to dream too big, ‘cause that’s not a thing. You never know where life I going to take you, just work really hard and see where your path is gonna be taking you!”
Carrie’s most recent album embodies all the joy and hard work of making dreams come true. From the carefree, lighthearted lyrics to the long hours she put into producing the project alongside co-producer, David Garcia, it’s a body of work she’s very proud of and hopes will bring joy to many.
“We wanted to have fun, I wanted to have fun,” she admitted of the main focus for the album. “I wanted something that was a bit more lighthearted and the kind of thing that people could sing into their hairbrushes and dance around their houses like nobody was watching them and have a good time with.”
The timing and message of the album could not be better as members of the LGBTQ+ community and allies come together to celebrate Pride month with the focus on celebrating individuals for exactly who they are.
