Maddie & Tae

Award-winning duo Maddie & Tae are sharing their brand-new collection of songs Through The Madness Vol. 1, out everywhere today. With each of the eight tracks co-penned by Maddie & Tae alongside some of Music Row’s most esteemed songwriters, the pair showcase their honest storytelling and signature harmonies on powerful love songs like “Strangers,” confident kiss-offs “Grown Man Cry” and “Wish You The Best,” plus top-notch collaborations with Morgane Stapleton and Lori McKenna.

“This project is the product of finding and focusing on the beauty, love, growth, strength and wisdom you gain through the madness if you look for it,” shared Maddie & Tae. “Through the chaos of these past couple of years, especially these past couple of months for us, we learn time and time again that love is enough to carry us through. May this be a giant hug and hand for you to hold through the madness.”

Out now, Maddie & Tae released a stripped-down performance of Through The Madness Vol. 1 track “Madness,” available to watch here. Turning heads out of  the gate, MusicRow praises “Madness” as an “audio dreamscape” while Billboard notes, “the melody makes good use of the duo’s tight-knit harmonies.”

Maddie & Tae (hopes for fans for TTM) OC: …but we did. :41
MADDIE: “I want fans to hear this project and feel known, seen and hopeful – those would be the things that we are going for with this project. We want to be real. I mean, there’s some heartbreakers on this project, but there are also songs to get you out of those moments. Just, our favorite thing in the world is to write real music, real lyric, and I feel like with this body of work we dug in even deeper, and I didn’t know we could go deeper. Jesus, what’s gonna happen on the next one? (TAE: “Oh Lawd.”) We’ve already been doing therapy and things, I don’t know how much deeper it gets than this, but we did. (laughs)”
