JOIN TEAM MAKENNA
Help build the career of an independent artist with a long-term vision.
About Me
Hi, I'm Makenna Burns.
I'm an independent pop artist, songwriter, producer, and entrepreneur committed to building a career rooted in creativity, ownership, and meaningful connection. Every song I release, every performance I give, and every project I take on is part of a much larger vision—creating art that resonates with people while building a sustainable, independent business around it.
I believe great careers aren't built alone. They're built by talented people who believe in a shared vision, bring their unique strengths to the table, and grow together over time.
If that sounds exciting to you, I'd love to connect.
The Vision
This isn't about chasing one viral moment.
It's about building something that lasts.
My vision is to create an internationally recognized independent music career through original music, live performance, strategic partnerships, and thoughtful entrepreneurship. I want to cultivate a loyal community that grows with every release, every show, and every chapter of the journey.
Alongside music, I'm passionate about developing businesses and initiatives that create lasting impact beyond the stage. The goal isn't simply to build a career—it's to build an enduring brand with room for extraordinary people to grow alongside it.
If you're excited by long-term thinking, meaningful relationships, and helping shape something from the ground up, there's a place for you here.
