Mackenzie Arromba Makes Powerful Label Devut With “Hard For You”, Out Now Via Wax Records
Mackenzie Arromba is an artist known for her haunting vocals and emotional honesty, turning her inner experiences into music that resonates with anyone struggling to be seen or heard. Her deeply personal songs explore themes of mental health, trauma, love, and healing, offering listeners a rare glimpse into the complexities of human emotion. Blending indie, pop, and alternative influences, her genre-defying sound pairs with raw, vulnerable lyrics that create a space for people to confront their feelings and feel understood.
Her work goes beyond storytelling, giving listeners permission to feel and heal through shared experiences. Recently, Mackenzie won an IPMA for ’hate myself for loving you’, the very first song she ever wrote—an achievement that marks a powerful milestone in her artistic journey and highlights her unique ability to connect with audiences on a deeply personal level.
“Every song I’ve written has helped me say a little more than the last and I feel like this one explains them all. The reasons behind the pain, the mistakes, the relationships I’ve been in. This song couldn’t exist without the others teaching me how to speak. It’s me finally saying what I never could, giving voice to the little kid inside me who carried too much.”
Canadian singer-songwriter Mackenzie Arromba makes a powerful statement with her Wax Records debut, “hard for you,” a track that blends haunting vocals with raw, confessional lyricism. Fresh from opening for Alyssa Reid at Toronto’s Mod Club, the song showcases her ability to turn personal experiences into music that resonates, exploring the lingering effects of childhood trauma and the complex relationships that arise from it. With atmospheric production and an intimate delivery, the track creates a space where vulnerability, hurt, and healing coexist.
For Arromba, “hard for you” marks the culmination of a long personal journey. She describes writing as a way to give voice to what she once kept silent, and this track signals the start of a series of deeply personal releases that reveal the evolution of her sound and artistic identity. With new music planned for 2026, Arromba is poised to grow her audience and establish herself as one of Canada’s most compelling emerging singer-songwriters.
