Country star Carly Pearce fuels album rumors with cryptic Instagram post on Feb. 23, 2026.

Country artist Carly Pearce has sparked fan speculation after clearing her Instagram and posting six captionless photos on February 23, 2026, forming a striking image of her. She responded to comments with only an emoji and the question “but are they ready?” without confirming any new music. The move follows hints like a past “CP5” notation, possibly referencing a fifth album, and her recent singles “Dream Come True” and “Church Girl,” both released in 2025, which explore personal sacrifice and compassion. No official announcements have been made.
