ABOUT JONATHAN PIERCE BAND
Jonathan Pierce Band
Alabama born and raised, Jonathan Pierce grew up a fan of grunge music (Nirvana, Bush, Soundgarden, NIN) in a small town with one red light. His mom and dad liked classic rock (Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Eagles) but he also was influenced by his mom's love for great music like Marvin Gaye, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Van Halen, and Phil Collins.
He eventually started an Americana band with his cousin, (Blue Jays Band) and put out an album and opened for Sister Hazel. But in 2014, when his mother passed, he moved back to Alabama and turned to country music. "To me country music comes from the heart and rock comes from the ego and I feel like my heart wants to speak."
In 2016, Jonathan moved to Nashville and released a country rock song called Get Dirty In My Jeep on the day that he opened for Willie Nelson and Allison Krause at Ascend Amphitheater. "Many people don't know I wrote that song about Taylor Swift lol. That girl needs to get outdoors and go muddin. And for the love of God, she needs to apologize for not paying respects to Toby Keith for helping her career. Her and her brainwashed fanbase is so disrespectful."
Since 2018, Jonathan has been writing and recording and even co-wrote a song called A Place for Us that was performed at Whiskey Jam by Z&G. He had picked up Z&G in his Uber. Likewise, he picked up his now fiancé in his Uber too right in front of the Country Music Hall of Fame in February of 2020. But with Covid interrupting the whole world that next month, Jonathan decided to put his music career on hold.
Now in 2025, 3 kids later, Jonathan is releasing songs with great titles like: Your Favorite Drinking Song, Neon Whiskey, Better Than Whiskey, I Just Wanna Fish, and Give Me Real Country Music or Death. "I've got songs for addiction, songs about Beyonce buying her way into country, anti-Covid songs, break up and love songs, and much more! We've been thru a lot as a country, and I'm gonna tackle that so I hope you enjoy what has taken me more than 7 years to create."

UPCOMING RELEASES
MAY 2025
Neon Whiskey
Set to release on 5.23.25, We've all been addicted to something... sex, drugs, alcohol, attention... an Em on a 1930s Gibson instantly had a mood and unfolded into a song about a girl fighting addiction to drugs and attention and a guy that felt remorse for ending the relationship. But he realizes that he's the one that is there to save her. Without him, she's just going to keep running back to the Neon Whiskey. I recorded this back on August 23, 2019 with Smith Curry.
Better Than Whiskey (In A Stapleton Song)
Set to release on 5.27.25, this love song is 9 years in the making! Jonathan was watching Chris Stapleton perform Tennessee Whiskey on Christmas Day of 2016 and prayed to God to give him a hit song that showed that love was Better Than Whiskey, and the title was born. I recorded this back on June 4, 2021 with Smith Curry.
JUNE 2025
I'LL STAND
Set to release on 6.10.25, this song is my Lee Greenwood style contribution to American patriotism. Written with Mason Douglas, I wanted to capture my love for this country and sing it in stadiums around the country. I pray I get to do that one day.
ALONG THE WATCHTOWER
Set to release on 6.28.25, I love Jimi Hendrix and he actually used to live in Nashville, TN before he moved to England and became world famous. So this is my tribute song to him with none other than the Miles McPherson on drums and Justin Ostrander on lead guitar with Chris Condon adding in layered lead guitar licks to satisfy the Jimi Hendrix fire burning in us all.
