Freshly Independent Mayce Embraces Her Authentic Artistry With “The Man That I Met”

In the bar scene, she makes eye contact with the bartender, and there is immediately a connection. She stays at the bar with him, drinking, talking, and laughing, until they are the last two people. It shows her in the same bar afterward in a crowded group of people, but she’s alone.

The music video for “The Man That I Met” takes you on a trip down memory lane watching MAYCE’s in a small-town dive bar and a bountiful field of flowers. Transitioning from a memory she made years ago to her playing the piano, she reflects on the man she once knew from that town.

In the scenes where she is in a field of flowers, she is wearing a stunning white dress that cascades around her while she plays the piano. In other field scenes, she is wearing a glamorous fitted gown with geometric patterns compiling the dress.

In the second to last scene of the video, she is watching herself from a third-person perspective speak to the man. The version of her that is speaking to him looks like she could be in love, but the present version of herself looks disappointed. In the final scene, she is alone in the field, stronger and wiser than she was before.
