Award-winning duo Maddie & Tae will perform at the Mentor Civic Amphitheater on Tuesday, August 20, 2024, at 7:30 PM as a part of the Mentor Rocks summer concert series.
They channel their unbreakable bond, honest songwriting and “some of the tightest harmonies on Music Row” (Rolling Stone) into their new collection of songs, What A Woman Can Do, out September 13 and featuring their latest release “Free Like.” Together as longtime friends and music collaborators, Maddie Font and Taylor Kerr previously drew praise for their 1-2 punch project Through The Madness Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, and their No. 1 debuting The Way It Feels album. The album’s 3X Platinum-certified No. 1 hit, “Die From A Broken Heart” topped the country airplay charts, making Maddie & Tae the first and only female twosome with multiple number one hits.
Maddie & Tae first broke out in 2013 with their brilliant counter to bro-country, the Platinum-selling smash, “Girl In A Country Song,” which took Country radio by storm, skyrocketing to the top of the charts and establishing them as only the third female duo in 70 years to top the Country Airplay charts. They took home Group/Duo Video of the Year (“Woman You Got”) at the 2022 CMT Music Awards, and were recently nominated for Duo of the Year at the 59th ACM Awards. They have earned trophies from the Radio Disney Music Awards and CMA Awards, along with multiple ACM, Billboard and CMT Music Award nominations. Maddie & Tae have received widespread praise from Associated Press, Billboard, Entertainment Weekly, NPR, The Tennessean, The Washington Post, Glamour and others. The celebrated duo has toured with country music’s biggest names including Carrie Underwood, Dierks Bentley, and Brad Paisley.
