"Torres" real name Mackenzie Scott, (born January 23, 1991) is an independent American singer, songwriter, musician and artist.
Mackenzie Scott was raised in Macon, Georgia, United States. She started singing in her high school's musical production of Fiddler on the Roof after being told by her family, "If you actually tried being serious, you'd probably have a good voice". Soon after beginning to perform in musicals, she learned to play guitar and began playing and singing hymns during church services and at a nursing home to comfort lonely residents, every Saturday.
After high school, she left Macon to study at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. She graduated from Belmont in 2012.
