On the romantic duet “Not Falling Out”, McNown and Pearce sing from the perspective of a couple that’s adamant about falling deeper in love instead of falling out. Between simple yet poignant guitar plucks and conversational verses, the two stars shine brightest together throughout heartwarming harmonies as they promise each other to ride the highs and meet the lows.
In an exclusive with American Songwriter, Max McNown shares, “As soon as ‘Not Falling Out’ was written, we all agreed that the track was begging for a feature. Carly has an incredible discography, reputation, and most importantly, a voice that felt perfect for the song. When she came to the studio, she quickly and effortlessly combined creative melodies with her silky tone of voice, bringing this song new life that I honestly didn’t expect. I don’t know where the song would be if she hadn’t been kind enough to agree to join me on it, and I’m so incredibly excited to give it to both our listeners!”
“I was already such a fan of Max, but getting to work with him made me an even bigger one,” adds Carly Pearce. “He has such a clear vision of who he is as an artist. I’m so proud of this song and can’t wait for everyone to hear it!”
“Not Falling Out” with Carly Pearce is McNown’s second major collab of the year, following “Take Me Back”, a nostalgic, crossover hit with global DJ Kygo. The new single also arrives on the heels of his recently released third studio album, Leave On A Light, the deeply personal record channels the whirlwind of the 25-year-old artist’s breakout success and pays homage to his wife, family, and the values that anchor him.
