It makes sense that in her spare time the Paris based musician Mackenzie Leighton works as a florist because her music is a ray of sunshine that radiates this beautiful joy that would make any flower go from wilting to blossoming in mere seconds. Originally born in a small seaside town in Maine, she made the leap back in 2017 and travelled to Paris alone with just her guitar in hand to help expand her musical horizons and, just like a seed, she sprouted and soaked up all the knowledge she could. It wasn’t long before she became a favourite in the Parisian scene with her expanding her intimate folk roots with a rich contemporary soundscape that brought a subtle flair to her work and now she’s dropped her very first French language single.
