MAYCE is an artist on the rise and she just released her new single “The Man That I Met.”

The 25-year-old singer was previously known as Macy Kate and this is the first new song to be released as part of her rebrand after leaving her longtime management and record label. MAYCE is now releasing music on her own!

“I wrote ‘The Man That I Met’ based on a relationship that ended in so much pain but I didn’t let that feeling blind me from remembering all of the good things about that person,” MAYCE said in a statement. “When something ends in hurt, it usually leaves a bad taste in our mouths, causing us to forget that those moments highlighted the worst versions of ourselves. This song brings maturity to light, especially once a relationship comes to a close. To recall someone for their light in this world instead of the dark shows growth, and I’ve never been more proud to release a song.”

Head inside now to listen to the song…

MAYCE sings in the chorus, “Holdin my hand in back of the basement / was too scared to turn on the light / Driving your car while I sit in amazement of all the damn records we’d find / Now I just run / As fast as I can / From The one thing that I thought was a man / But I won’t forget / The man that I met / Again.”

Head to MAYCE‘s YouTube channel starting at 12pm PT on October 25 to watch the official music video.
