Layered over an acoustic production that boasts percussive elements, his memorable melodies and unrivaled lyricism create a pop victory.

When asked about the meaning behind the single, Mackenzy Mackay explained, “Bruised one is a song about having a big heart and having a lot of love to give. Touching on the subject of being an overthinker and over analysing things sometimes that are just not that deep. Loving and thinking a lot, perhaps too much for your own good. Painting or making up scenarios that don’t exist..”
