Mackenzie Carpenter Ponders A Much-Needed Invention On “Heart That Don’t Break”

Today (6.26), ACM-nominated country artist Mackenzie Carpenterdreams up a new invention for the brokenhearted on "Heart That Don't Break," available now via Big Machine Records. Written by Carpenter alongside Nicolle Galyon (Morgan Wallen, Camila Cabello)and Jordan Reynolds (Kelsea Ballerini, Charlie Puth) and produced by Jamie Moore (TobyMac, Florida Georgia Line), the wistful country ballad finds Carpenter wide awake at a quarter 'til two, wondering why a world capable of self-driving trucks, moon landings and every modern convenience still hasn't figured out how to build a heart that doesn't break.

"One day, I got to thinking: with all of the modern inventions and improvements we've made, like self-driving trucks, NA beer, and iCloud - why hasn't somebody figured out how to make a heart that don't break?" said Carpenter. "It might sound like wishful thinking, but this song takes that idea and turns it into something honest, playful and real. Because if there was an upgrade for heartbreak, I think we'd all be in line to buy two."

"Heart That Don't Break" The release follows Carpenter's recently released tracks including "High Pony " (5.15), "All In Already" (4.3) and "Drunk Cigs (2.27),"

With "irresistibly catchy" (Holler) hooks and an "ability to write a killer melody" (American Songwriter), Carpenter proves her gift for turning life's biggest feelings into unforgettable country songs - fueling more than 100 million career streams and earning songwriting cuts with artists including Megan Moroney, Lily Rose and Hudson Westbrook.

Following recent performances at the inaugural Braves Country Fest and CMA Fest's Riverfront Stage, Carpenter will spend the summer on the road with appearances at major festivals including Windy City Smokeout and Rock the Country, along with support dates on Riley Green's Cowboy As It Gets Tour and Jason Aldean's Songs About Us Tour. She'll also make a special guest appearance during Kane Brown's upcoming show run. For the full list of tour dates, visit: mackenziecarpentermusic.com/tour/.
