MACKENZIE PORTER EXPOSES HEARTBREAK IN “SEEING OTHER PEOPLE” OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO

While debut single “These Days” is spinning across U.S. Country radio, Big Loud Records’ MacKenzie Porter is sharing today the official music video for her most recent release, “Seeing Other People.” 

Shot in New York City in February and directed by Justin Clough, the video walks viewers through the all-too-familiar moment of seeing your ex for the first time after a breakup with someone new. The clip follows Porter weaving through the heart of the Big Apple – from the subway to Central Park, to a gorgeous indoor greenhouse – and telling the story of a fictional relationship from the couple's time together to breaking up to "seeing other people."

“We chose to shoot it in New York because we loved the idea of setting against the backdrop of a location where there are millions of people and the likelihood of running into an ex is slim — but somehow, it still happens," Porter shared with PEOPLE, who premiered the clip exclusively yesterday. "Of course you are going to see them out and around in a small town, but the chances in a big city are so small that it almost hurts worse; like it was meant to be rubbed in your face.” She adds, “Seeing your person out with someone else is heartbreaking no matter what the circumstances are. But I’ve gotten through it, and so many of my fans have too, and I really just wanted to portray that in this video. I hope you love it!”

Later this year, Porter will release more new music produced by ACM Producer of the Year nominee Joey Moi.

ABOUT MACKENZIE PORTER
Singer-songwriter MacKenzie Porter is a rising Country talent whose sound knows no borders. Signed to Big Loud Records, Porter is surging now with debut single “These Days” and an arsenal of new music produced by Joey Moi (Jake Owen, Morgan Wallen). Since moving to Nashville in 2014 from her native Canada, she’s developed a radiant Country style which threads the needle between traditional heart and modern energy, often collaborating with songwriting mainstays like Nicolle Galyon, Craig Wiseman, Natalie Hemby, and Tommy English. Her "mesmerizing vocals and hook-driven songs" (Billboard) have sparked a list of headline-worthy accolades, including a prestigious nomination for Country Album of the Year at the 2015 JUNO Awards and three Female Artist of the Year nominations from the Canadian Country Music Awards. Making her mark, Porter became the first female artist to have back-to-back #1 singles at Canadian Country radio in 22 years with “About You,” and “These Days” in early 2020, following Shania Twain in 1998. She’s toured extensively on her own, sharing the stage with Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Chris Lane, Blake Shelton and Dallas Smith, and co-starred in the Netflix series, "Travelers."
