MaRynn is a 21-year-old singer and songwriter originally from Michigan. Her Midwest roots, impeccable talent, and love for Buckle style forged a genuine connection to the brand. This partnership showcases how music and style go hand-in-hand to share a story and spread holiday cheer.
“The opportunity to work with Buckle this holiday season is such a joy, especially as I’m releasing my first Christmas song,” said MaRynn. “I knew I needed outfits that suited me and made me feel like my best self this holiday season. Growing up, I remember Buckle being one of those stores in the mall that I always admired as I walked past, wanting to wear their clothes. As a young woman, I sometimes struggle to feel good in my own skin and I knew that by partnering with Buckle this holiday season, I would find my perfect fit.”
MaRynn continued, “For the 'O Come, All Ye Faithful' music video, our goal was cozy, warm and relaxed and Buckle sent me beautiful, classic Christmas looks with enough flair to make them unique to me. That's really important to me and I love that Buckle and I are partnering together - it’s a real gift.”

About MaRynn Taylor
Country music’s tiny new powerhouse is a reflection of her generation. “I want people to hear my story, and connect it to their story,” says MaRynn Taylor, country music’s fast-rising powerhouse vocalist who is on a trajectory to connect with millions of fans. Her new 5-song EP, Something I Would Do (Black River), provides a glimpse into the 21-year-old’s world with each track offering snapshots of her present and past. The radio-ready “Every Single Summer” reflects on a youthful MaRynn spending carefree days on Lake Michigan, playing outside and hanging with friends. She eventually moved to Nashville where a chance encounter at the 2019 CMA Music Festival gave her the break she needed—an impromptu performance after Black River Entertainment’s 60 Second Spotlight event had already closed for the day. MaRynn says she spent the next few months in “music summer camp” learning about songwriting and she recorded music for the first time in a professional recording studio. MaRynn is excited to get out on the road and share these songs that are so close to her heart with fans and hear their personal stories, too. Today, MaRynn Taylor is no longer the little girl dreaming on the front porch; she is the voice ready to inspire a generation.
