Macy Todd

It'll take a couple seconds to realize that Macy Todd's "I've Got A Feelin'" is worth your time. The debut track from the Atlanta soul singer is filled with fierce, suave production and her own intimate, boisterous voice, and what perfectly articulate lines she uses invites singing/bellowing along. This won't be the last time the singer is heard. - Hilly Dilly

Beautifully classic soulful songwriting here from Atlanta’s Macy Todd, merging elements of the likes of Winehouse, Paloma Faith and Macy Gray.
Toeing the line perfectly between daringly over the top yet emotionally intimate, it’s hopefully a sign of far more to come. Check out I’ve Got a Feelin’ below. - Crack In The Road

Here’s a side to Atlanta’s music scene that you probably haven’t heard all that much about, but as with her hip-hop counterparts, Macy Todd’s style brims with confidence. Her music is self-assured, even as she begins to explore new genres. Since the tender age of fourteen, Macy Todd has been writing songs - bubbling pop in college, rich blues a year ago, and now a left-field indie-pop song that reminds us of a certain Maggie Rogers or Diana Gordon. The base of Todd’s new single ‘Flying’ is certainly pop, but it’s the playful freeform kind that keeps you tuned in with weird synths, jovial percussion, upbeat acoustic guitar, and the funky punch of bass. Of course, the first thing that will draw a listener in is Todd’s voice, which at first is just above a whisper, before launching into a soulful declaration 'I feel like I’m flying again'. As Todd herself explains of the song, “my favourite music has always been music that leaves me lighter than before,” and that’s exactly what ‘Flying’ does, especially in the chorus; a happy triumph above it all. Macy Todd’s message sandwiched in the song could be just the thing an unexpecting listener needs to hear right now: "no matter what you’re going through, there is redemption, and you have to be okay with starting from ground zero.” - Hannah Thacker - The Most Radicalist

This track is blazingly good. Todd has an incredible amount of soulful swagger backed by an incredible band that crackles with confidence and talent. “Give It Up” showcases the artist’s vocal gusto that reminds us of the likes of ZZ Ward and dare we say Amy Winehouse. Working with producer and friend Dan Hannon (Manchester Orchestra, A Rocket To The Moon), she is able to craft a gut punching and hip-shaking track of epic soul proportions. Macy Todd is the real deal. - Ear To The Ground

Atlanta-based songbird Macy Todd, inspired by the likes of Amy Winehouse, Paloma Faith and Macy Gray, first made waves with her debut single “I’ve Got A Feelin'” which racked up over 600K streams since last year.

After racking up over 600k streams on her debut single last year, Macy Todd was always destined for great things. This is one of those things. Our favourite submission over the past 24 hours without a doubt. ‘Give It Up’ is a classic rock/pop song with a lot of funk, thanks to the trumpets and verby guitars. The raspy vocal of Ms Todd only makes it even better. If you listen to one song today, this should be it. - Audio Tox

Not the usual thing we feature here on MM but we are truly in love with Macy Todd’s ‘Give It Up’. With soaring vocals that drip like honey down our eardrums and music that sounds as sophisticated as it feel good, it’s hard to ignore Todd’s. - Emily Branson

Up and coming Atlanta based singer and songwriter, Macy Todd released her sophomore single “Give It Up.”

Todd’s debut single "I've Got A Feelin'" racked up over 600K streams since last year. Praised for "merging elements of the likes of Amy Winehouse, Paloma Faith, and Macy Gray," “I’ve Got A Feelin” received mass attention by music blogs alike.

Todd is back again with the release of "Give It Up," channeling the vocal powerhouse performance that launched her career the first time around. "Give It Up" came to be while Todd's longtime producer and collaborator, Dan Hannon (Manchester Orchestra, A Rocket To The Moon) was recovering from surgery. While in the hospital, the idea and melody of “Give It Up” came to him.

“Give It Up” features Todd’s sultry strong vocals and catchy hooks. At just 21 years old, and ties already in the music industry, we will be seeing the name Macy Todd on the billboard charts very soon. - Sarah Brown - NU

Macy explains, “This one’s for the butterfly-inducing, roller coaster ride could-have-been loves, the sunset-soaked summer romances, the I-might-fall-for-you flings that had our hearts racing and filled us to the brim with (temporary) magic. Here’s to the one’s that crashed in and dipped out like a wave on the shore, leaving us better (and smarter) than we were to begin with. To anyone who’s ever been ‘in like,’ this one’s for you.”
