With a voice that captivates and lyrics that stir the soul, Pierce Nielsen thrives on the energy of live performances. His indie Americana and folk-country mix paints vivid pictures of life, the beauty of America's Rocky Mountains, and the complexities of the human experience. Contrite, his breakthrough album, is a collection of songs that project raw emotion and authenticity inspired by his travels and life experiences. 

Growing up in Scottsdale, Arizona, Pierce's life revolved around two passions: football and musical theatre. He began performing in small local theaters, cultivating his love for storytelling through music & live performance. However, his love for football shifted his focus away from musical theatre. After a devastating career ending injury, Pierce closed the door to his room, picked up his guitar and sought solace in the music he had once set aside.
