Those who discovered Mackenzie Scott’s self-titled debut in 2013 found a singer-songwriter with oodles of potential, with her sparse torch-songs, sculpted wordcraft and heartbreaking delivery.
It could be time for the Torres fanclub to find a bigger room because this second album is going to bring in a lot more folks.
Again, Scott is penning songs based on experiences and musings, but song after song speaks of a huge creative development between albums.
The powerful narrative behind The Exchange, the examination of faith on the title track and the bittersweet romance of Ferris Wheel all demonstrate that Scott's aim is always true.
Producer Rob Ellis helps to sketch guidelines to corral the energy and drama, but the real directing is done by Scott, who is proving to be a very special talent indeed.
