MacKenzie Porter Is Kicking Off Her Canadian Headline Tour in Toronto Tonight w/ Griffen Palmer for Her Upcoming Album and She Joins Elijah Woods for Reimaged ''Last Girl''!!

MacKenzie Porter Kicks Off Her First Canadian Headline Tour Tonight in Toronto 

Toronto, ON (November, 3rd, 2023) - On the rise country chart-topper MacKenzie Porter joins forces with multi-platinum artist and producer Elijah Woods for the new version of Wood's fan favourite ode to love ‘’Last Girl (ft. MacKenzie Porter)'' out now!  Originally featured on Woods' Bright Orange Everglow EP, he enlists Porter's distinct country pop shimmer to pair with his dreamy, synth-pop vocals, creating a perfect complement on the reimagined, cross-genre love son.

‘’I'm such a fan of Elijah's music and when he brought me this song, I knew I had to be a part of it,'' Porter shares.  ‘’It's the perfect mix of honest country lyricism and dreamy-pop.  I'm so excited to collaborate with another incredible Canadian artist.''

‘’As soon as I heard MacKenzie's vocals I knew she would be perfect for ‘’Last Girl.'' ‘’It was written with a blend of easy-listening pop and country undertones, ‘’ says Woods.  ‘’The song lends itself perfectly to a duet, and I couldn't be happier on how it turned out.''

ABOUT MACKENZIE PORTER

Rising to international acclaim with a distinct country-pop shimmer reminiscent of iconic predecessor Shania Twain, Canada-born and Nashville-based MacKenzie Porter's sound knows no borders. Making an introductory statement with her critically acclaimed, chart-dominating, six-week U.S. #1 Dustin Lynch duet “Thinking 'Bout You,” Porter now returns with lightning-like summer jam “Chasing Tornadoes,” teasing what's to come on her full-length Big Loud Records debut. Making her mark with standout hits such as “Pickup,” which earned her a 2023 CMT Music Awards nomination for Breakthrough Female Video of the Year, and best-known head-bobber “These Days,” her "mesmerizing vocals and hook-driven songs'' (Billboard) continue to spark headline-worthy moments and accolades. Standing alone as the only female in her category nominated for Favorite Country Song at the 2022 American Music Awards, the 2022 MusicRow Discovery Artist of the Year has additionally earned 22 CCMA nominations, including a nod for Entertainer of the Year. Most recently winning Musical Collaboration of the Year at the 2023 CCMA awards, Porter continues to be a trailblazer in her field. The first female this century to have six #1 songs on Canadian country radio, Porter claimed her first crossover Top 10 on Canadian pop radio with “These Days (Remix)” – the first since 2003 for a Canadian country artist. The triple threat is a member of CMT's elite Next Women of Country Class of 2021, and previously starred as an actress in the cult-followed sci-fi television series Travelers. Having toured the globe opening for Blake Shelton, Kenny Chesney, Walker Hayes, Jordan Davis, Brad Paisley, Dallas Smith, and Rascal Flatts, Porter is on the road now for her first headlining Canadian tour.
