Torres aka Mackenzie Scott has shared details of a new album called ‘Thirstier’ and a tour in support of it.

‘Thirstier’ is Mackenzie Scott’s second album on Merge Records, following last year’s ‘Silver Tongue’, and will come out on July 30.

“I’ve been conjuring this deep, deep joy that I honestly didn’t feel for most of my life,” Scott said of the new album in a statement. “I feel like a rock within myself. And I’ve started to feel that I have what it takes to help other people conjure their joy, too.”

She added: “I wanted to channel my intensity into something that felt positive and constructive, as opposed to being intense in a destructive or eviscerating way. I love the idea that intensity can actually be something life-saving or something joyous.”

Of new single ‘Don’t Go Puttin Wishes in My Head’, she said: “It’s my relentless arena country star moment—my shameless Tim McGraw cheeseball hit.”

The musician is set to tour ‘Thirstier’ around the US in the second half of 2021, with a UK tour following early next year.

Torres has been releasing music since 2013 and has four studio albums under her belt already.

Her debut self-titled album received favorable reviews from Beats Per Minute, Pitchfork, and Metacritic. Music website Pitchfork Media named Torres’s debut single, “Honey,” best new track, describing it as “an arena-rock moment happening on an empty stage […] with its slow-burn intensity and coiled energy.” Following the release of the album, Pitchfork gave the debut Torres album an 8.1 rating calling the record “an overwhelming rush of feeling […] that connects with throat-seizing immediacy.”

The singer/songwriter toured extensively alongside notable acts including Lady Lamb the Beekeeper, Okkervil River, Sharon Van Etten, and Hamilton Leithauser.
