MacKenzie Porter

Rising to international acclaim with a distinct country-pop shimmer, Canada-born, Nashville-based rising star MacKenzie Porter's sound knows no borders. Making a statement with her just-released, 19-track Big Loud Records debut, Nobody's Born With A Broken Heart, Porter shines across the project EUPHORIA. Magazine praises as having “a song on it for everyone.” The 2022 MusicRow Discovery Artist of the Year has earned global buzz for her “clear sound that instantly cuts deep” (CMT), earning nominations at the American Music Awards, Academy of Country Music Awards, CMT Awards, JUNO Awards, and has earned a whopping 22 CCMA Awards nominations, including a nod for Entertainer of the Year. This fall, she'll co-host the CCMAs in Edmonton, Alberta, alongside Thomas Rhett. The sparkling talent has made high-profile global appearances on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, CBC q, The Morning Show, and many more. Porter broke out in 2022 with chart-dominating, six-week U.S. No. 1 “Thinking 'Bout You” with duet partner Dustin Lynch, building on international success as the first female this century to have six No. 1 songs at Canadian country radio and adding to over 932 million global on-demand streams. Touring the globe opening for Blake Shelton, Kenny Chesney, Brad Paisley, Dallas Smith, Rascal Flatts, and more, MacKenzie wrapped her own Canadian headline tour earlier this year, and will open for Parker McCollum, Keith Urban, and Brett Young this summer.
