Rising Country singer/songwriter Mackenzie Carpenter is wholly in her element in her new song “Boots On.” Out today via The Valory Music Co., the unabashedly flirty, clever and twangy track finds the young talent lovesick, craving some kisses and trying her hardest to coax her beau back home. Tempting her man to play hooky by living out what many a man’s daydreams are made of, Carpenter cheekily tries to rope him in with what she is…or isn’t wearing.

The toe-tapping track, with its playful charm and familiar bouncy beat, plays out like a scene from a Rom Com and would be right at home on any Kate Hudson movie soundtrack. Written by Carpenter alongside award-winning singer/songwriter Rhett Akins and frequent collaborators Brandon Hood and Ben Williams, “Boots On” is an irresistibly catchy plea sure to be stuck in your head all summer.
“I wrote ‘Boots On’ in my honeymoon era, so that season was a big inspiration for this one,” shares Carpenter. “It’s such a fun, flirty tune that my hubby sure does love and I hope y’all do too!”
Carpenter has been penning bold, tell-it-like-it-is songs with some of Country music’s hottest talents for years and has been selected to perform at NSAI’s 7th annual Nashville Songwriter Awards on September 24. Fans have heard her songwriting chops on songs including Lily Rose’s 2021 No. 1 hit “Villain” and Megan Moroney’s Top 15 single “I’m Not Pretty” and new fan-favorite tracks “Indifferent” and “28th of June.” Her songwriting was most recently on display in her new track “Only Girl” which was released in June to rave reviews.
What critics are saying about Mackenzie:

“With ‘Only Girl,’ Mackenzie Carpenter proves that she is not just a storyteller but also a heartfelt balladeer. The song positions her as a leading force among the dynamic women in country music, charting a course toward superstardom.”
