Duo Country
US composé de Madison Kay Marlow (née le 7 Juillet 1995) et Taylor Elizabeth "Tae"
Dye (née le 18 Septembre 1995).
Arriving at the height of bro country's peak in the mid-2010s, Maddie & Tae skewered
that genre's down-home swagger with "Girl in a Country Song," a sharp satire of
all the sexist clichés littering the airwaves in 2014. "Girl in a Country Song"
became a hit in its own right, reaching number one on Billboard's Country
Airplay charts by the end of 2014, making the duo of Maddie Marlow and Taylor
Dye genuine country stars. Start Here, Maddie & Tae's 2015 debut, kept the pair
on the charts, thanks in part to "Fly," a bittersweet ballad which played to the
duo's strengths as harmonizers and canny country-pop synthesizers. The two hits
made a lasting impression that sustained Maddie & Tae through some label trouble
in the ensuing years, a period that ended with the 2019 release of the One Heart
to Another EP.
Maddie Marlow and Taylor Dye first crossed paths in 2010, when they were
students of the same vocal coach while attending high school in the Dallas area.
Hitting it off, the duo struck up a friendship that turned professional. As
Sweet Aliana, the pair began performing and writing songs, making the occasional
trip to Nashville. After graduation, they relocated to the Music City, earning
the attention of Big Machine Records, which decided to make the duo -- now named Maddie
& Tae -- the flagship signing for Dot Records, a legendary label revived under
the Big Machine umbrella.
Dot released "Girl in a Country Song" -- a clever satire of bro country Marlow and Dye co-wrote
with Aaron Scherz -- as Maddie & Tae's first single in July 2014. "Girl in a
Country Song" quickly became a sensation within the country music media, then
worked its way up the charts. By the end of 2014, it had reached number one on
Billboard's Country Airplay charts, an achievement that coincided with the
November release of their eponymous debut EP. Along with "Girl in a Country
Song," the EP featured their second single "Fly," which climbed to number nine
on Country Airplay in the summer of 2015, setting up the release of their debut, Start
Here.
Start Here arrived in August 2015. The album debuted at two on Billboard's
Country Album charts and seven on Billboard Top 200 with the single "Shut Up and
Fish" peaking at 23 later that fall. Another single, "Sierra," appeared in 2016,
but it stalled at 47 on the Country Airplay Charts.
Dot folded in 2017, leaving the duo to transition over to Mercury Nashville in
2018. The single "Friends Don't" arrived in 2018, reaching 33 on Country Airplay.
"Friends Don't" and "Die from a Broken Heart" both appeared on One Heart to
Another, an EP released in April 2019. Another EP, Everywhere I'm Goin',
appeared in October of that year as Maddie & Tae wrapped up sessions for their
second album. The resulting The Way It Feels, which contained all of the two
previously released EPs, appeared in April 2020.
