Mackenzie Leigh Meyer is the "Dive Bar Diva" we all need! - Front Porch Music" Of all the artists taking part in the Boots & Hearts Emerging Artist Showcase – nobody quite had an entrance like Mackenzie. By the time she came on stage, the crowds were ready for a good time.
She was such a thrill to watch perform. Her performance was so varied, that we were truly able to get a sense for who she is as an artist. At some points we were dancing along with her, and other times were enjoying her piano playing. All the while, with an enormous smile on her face." August 22nd, 2019 |
Getting to know Boots and Hearts Emerging Artist Finalist Mackenzie Leigh Meyer - Soundcheck Entertainment" #8: Who are your musical influences that inspired you to follow in their path?
I am a huge Kacey Musgraves fan, but also really love Maren Morris, Fleetwood Mac, Queen and The Eagles. I value authenticity in music heavily. I think we can really feel when an artist has been through the stories they’re singing about. Seeing them connect with, and move people using their truths inspired me to pursue this for a living.

MAY FEATURE: Mackenzie Leigh Meyer"What is integral to your work as an artist?
Genuine emotion. In some way or another, all my songs have been inspired by things that have moved me emotionally. Whether that's heartbreak, happiness, loneliness, etc. each song starts from a place of honesty and evolves into a narrative that reflects that emotion. Sometimes those plots are true to my life, sometimes they're not. But all of them originate from personal and emotional moments in my life. May 1st, 2018 |
