Maddie & Tae: The New Generation of Pop Country Music

Alissa Antilla, A&E Editor

Maddie and Tae have perfected the art of pop country music. Their new album, Start Here, possesses country girl melodies such as “Waitin’ On A Plane” and “Smoke”. Every country summer stereotype is brought forth through Maddie and Tae’s artistry. Lyrics and a twangy beat combine to stir up images of cowboy romances. Every song is a testament to the carefree energy of summer.

Songs such as “Girl In A Country Song” and “Shut Up and Fish” perfectly balance the twangy beat typical of country songs with pop-centered overtones. All the songs from Start Here stay true to country roots, yet they add a fresh new perspective. While many people associate country music with cowboys, tractors, and ranches, Maddie and Tae prove that they can bring country music up a notch with a dash of femininity and a more modern twist to traditional country music.

Maddie and Tae are quickly bursting out onto the music scene with their wide range of vocal abilities. It is clear that Start Here is going places. Maddie and Tae are America’s perfect country sweethearts and their musical duo is destined to flourish in the music industry.
