MACKENZIE PORTER UNCORKS “DRINKIN’ SONGS”

Big Loud Records’ MacKenzie Porter takes a time travelling trip through the decades in the music video for latest release, “Drinkin’ Songs,” out now.

Directed by Justin Clough and shot in Nashville, TN, the clip shows Porter dating one dud after another time after time, with each love interest throughout the iconic eras becoming “just another one of (her) drinkin’ songs.” Sealed with a martini and an intoxicating hook, “Drinkin’ Songs” delivers with “impressive vocal chops” (Calgary Herald) that have fans “instantly obsessed” (Whiskey Riff).

With Nashville taking notice of her “authentic heart” (American Songwriter) as well as “her mesmerizing vocals and hook-driven songs” (Billboard), Porter was just inducted into CMT’s Next Women of Country Class of 2021, joining an elite sisterhood of trailblazers and tastemakers. Watch Porter take the stage performing “These Days” for their announcement celebration here.

Porter wrapped 2020 with the release of Drinkin’ Songs: The Collection, a 7-song assembly of over two years’ worth of new music that wrapped up a breakout chapter in anticipation of what’s next. This year, Porter will deliver more new music produced by Joey Moi, featuring her “girl-next-door vocals” that “cut like a blade” (Billboard).
