Country is a genre especially attuned to heartbreak. MacKenzie Porter channels her own hurt and heartache into her full-length Big Loud debut, a lengthy and far-reaching collection loosely centered on lost love. The Canadian-born singer-songwriter, whose accolades in her home country include six No. 1 hits at country radio and 22 CCMA nominations, offers a little bit of everything on Nobody’s Born With a Broken Heart: feisty kiss-offs (“Have Your Beer,” “Bet You Break My Heart”), vulnerable admissions (“Easy to Miss,” “Confession”), and reflections on her life as an artist (“Young at Heart,” “Nightingale”). Porter delivers each song with honeyed vocals reminiscent of veteran Hillary Scott and fellow newcomer Dasha, with each track, produced by Big Loud go-to Joey Moi, heavily emphasizing pop-adjacent melodies. Porter is a writer on nine of the 19 tracks, with notable co-writers including Hillary Lindsey, Emily Weisband, Devin Dawson, and Lainey Wilson.
