Chapman Stick
Pearce's first CD, "Tenderness and Fatality", was released in 1993 and the following six CDs saw Pearce focusing on creating music using only electric guitar. His CDs "To the Shores of Heaven" and "Bleed" were picked as "CD of the month" by the producers of NPR's "Echoes" radio program. For his eighth and ninth CD's, "Lingering Light" and "Rainshadow Sky", Pearce featured compositions written for the Chapman Stick. Pearce plays the Alto Chapman Stick, and in 2009, was asked to write an article for Stick Enterprises (manufacturer of the Chapman Stick) about his experience with the Alto Stick.
