Maddie & Tae’s One Heart to Another EP is out today (April 26th), and the five-song collection includes “Friends Don’t,” “Tourist in This Town,” the title cut, “New Dogs Old Tricks” and their brand new single, “Die From a Broken Heart.”
They chose “One Heart to Another” as the title of the new project because of what it meant to them when they first wrote it.
“We chose ‘One Heart to Another’ to be the title track because when we wrote it, it was a really special day,” says the duo’s Taylor Dye. “We were pretty much in between our deals at the point and were very confused and very just insecure as people, and songwriters and a duo. And you know, it was just one of those days we went into a writing room and just didn’t care what anyone would think about the music we were writing. We just thought ‘You know what? Let’s write something that means something to us, and let’s say stuff we’ve never said, be bold, tell the truth.’ So, that really is what shaped the entire record at that point. Was just kind of being bold and being unapologetic about it, and so ‘One Heart to Another’ just fit that perfectly.”
Maddie agrees, adding, “It is one heart to another. It’s our heart to our fans. So, it was kind of that song means a couple of different things. Like Tae said, writing ‘One Heart to Another’ gave us the confidence to continue on and to continue with this project. So, it’s our little song that started it for us.”
The two are gearing up to hit the road as part of Carrie Underwood’s Cry Pretty Tour 360, kicking off May 1st in Greensboro, North Carolina.
