Welcome to a new segment on the blog called On the Radar! It is essentially where I write a little blurb about artists that should be on your radar, because their brilliantly talented selves have shined through and baffled me with their sentiments. Plus, discovering new musicians is pretty wonderful.

Today, I bring you Auckland-based musical prodigy, Mackensie Grace, who released her debut EP, Our Night, on 14th May 2021 and brings you different genres throughout the six song modern jazz, pop-ballad, smartly recorded EP - it has the ultimate dance factor to it and will have you doing a shimmy all night long.

Mackensie has been writing her own songs for over a decade, so doesn’t fail to wow listeners with her stunningly powerful vocals and showcases her skills from what she has learnt throughout her life and through studying at the University of Auckland to enhance her abilities.

Incredibly, Mackensie has also had a bit of international exposure in the way of that she has performed for a Casting Director in New York and has even composed some original music - this girl is far from bored and uninspired, her motivation on the top level. Mackensie is showcasing everything that she has and is allowing anyone with dreams as big as hers to see that they too, can make them a reality.

Why should you listen to Mackensie?

She brings it all to the table in terms of being a hustler, creates beautifully intricate ballads and is a generally sweet human.

My favourite song?

Our Night!
