Carly Pearce Honors Sister For Her Service In The Military

Carly Pearce put her sister, Cristy, in the spotlight during her recent tour stop with headliner Lady A in Evansville, Indiana. A member of the military, Cristy is headed to Kuwait to serve as a Captain in the National Guard so Carly brought her up on stage and asked the crowd to pray for her.

 

Carly shared a post on Instagram along with a few pictures of them together on stage writing in part, "I surprised my sister (she wanted to kill me) & brought her up on stage . . . What a beautiful moment it was for someone I admire & love so much. We also together gave a moment of silence for the devastating loss our country experienced this past week & cheered for all of the men & women who have served that were in the crowd. Cristy, thank you for your service. I love you & I’ll miss you, but am so damn proud of you."

 

Carly will perform as part of CMA Summer Jam, a three-hour concert event airing tonight (Thursday, September 2nd) on ABC at 8 p.m. ET. She will appear on Good Morning America today.
