Who is Pierce?
A SIMPLE MAN IN A WORLD OF MUSIC
Multi-instrumentalist and passionate music lover Pierce Clarke creates songs that blend emotions, sounds, and styles of all kinds.
Working from a place of authenticity and heart, Pierce writes and performs material influenced by the legends who came before him, while offering a voice that is unmistakably his own. His music aims to connect, rooted in the belief that while each person's story is unique, we all share common threads.
Born in Prince Edward Island, the tiny province along Canada’s sea-battered East Coast, young Pierce relocated to Boston to attend the world-renowned Berklee College of Music with a focus on songwriting alongside a dual Piano and Vocal principle. Since graduating, Pierce has spent years recording and working in studios in Toronto, New York, Boston, Miami, and Nashville. As a performer his career has taken him "coast to coast." He has toured Canada with Sunday Punch and taken the Pierce Clarke Band to major stages including the Cavendish Beach Music Festival. His latest passion project is C’mon In, an authentic Kitchen Party performance he dreamed up with his longtime friend and fellow dreamer Robbie Doherty.
Now based back in his home of PEI, Pierce is continually growing and evolving as a songwriter, musician, and performer. Driven by a relentless desire and genuine love of his craft, Pierce Clarke was born to tell universal stories through words and music.
