Sprinter

Description

The fascinating second album from one of the great hopes of American indie rock. "I wanted something that clearly came from my conservative Southern roots but that, at the same time, sounds futuristic and soaring." Mackenzie Scott, aka TORRES in the music world, returns with a captivating second album. At only 23 years old, the young artist from Nashville, now based in Brooklyn, already has numerous collaborations to her credit. Notably, she has toured with Okkervil River and opened for Sharon Van Etten and Hamilton Leithauser. The first single from Sprinter, "Strange Hellos," reflects the album: sweet at times, frenetic at others, with guitar riffs and Scott's enchanting voice. It is a very eclectic work but never loses sight of its goal: to constantly analyze the depths of the self, boldly mix genres, and stand up to darkness. TORRES composed them by pushing the limits of her restless mind to find herself. She has certainly found many fans. "Mackenzie Scott's voice expresses a raw, urgent despair, the kind that makes you instinctively shudder and captures your attention on a primal level." - Pitchfork
