TORRES is Mackenzie Scott and she was just added to the excellent Partisan roster. Her follow-up to her 2013 s/t debut will be titled Sprinter and see the light of day on 5/5/15. She’s got a little bit of a fire in the belly and her music is all the better for it. Here’s a snippet on her – Alienation and emerging from darkness are big themes on the record — be it Torres’s place in her family as an adopted child whose mother was also adopted, or her grappling with her Conservative christian southern roots, or her self-imposed outsider status in New York following a recent move from Nashville.
She’ll be at SXSW and I’m sure she’ll be a sought-after show to see.
