ALBUM REVIEW: Chris Pierce Battles Despair and Injustice on ‘Songs for the Heavy Hearted’ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Yes, things are bad these days. While it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the unending tide of awful news, the folks who speak out against despair and inequality can help raise the spirits. Chris Pierce is one. More than two decades into a career grounded in plainspoken folk-pop, this California troubadour continues to champion social justice and the need for empathy in daily life.
