Mackenzie Scott, better known as Torres, will release Three Futures, her third studio album, via 4AD on Friday, Sept. 29. That very same day, the Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter will perform at Rock and Roll Hotel!
In describing the album, Torres said it “is entirely about using the body that each of us has been given as a mechanism of joy.” The 10 tracks of the album immersively explore ecstasy, desire, and indulgence.
Producer Rob Ellis, who worked on Torres’ last album Splinter, produced the new album, which was mixed by David Tolomei (Beach House, Future Islands). Torres expands her sonic palette with her new music, embracing mechanized grooves, electro pop, industrial textures, and Krautrock motifs.

After Torres published Splinter in 2015, the New York Times said, “Her music can smolder while she considers exactly where she stands, and it can roar into feedback-edged howls when her rage or despair boil over.”
