On April 10th, Maddie & Tae will finally release their anticipated sophomore album The Way It Feels. The project is produced by Jimmy Robbins and Derek Wells and features songs from the duo’s past two EPs released last year.
Maddie Marlow had this to say in a recent statement; “It has been four years since we’ve released an album.. For us, this is a lot more than just an album release. This sophomore album will always be a reminder that no matter the setbacks and struggles, we will come out stronger and better. We are so proud of this 15-song story. We wrote these songs during the most vulnerable times and our hope is that people hear that and connect.”
“These songs will always represent something so beautiful and spiritual to us. And hopefully, it will represent something similar to people who listen,” Taylor Dye added.
“This album is so strong that I didn’t want to waste one song,” Mabe previously told Billboard. “This is a strategy that made a lot of sense for Maddie & Tae, with all they have going on and a fanbase that is so eager for more. It’s a fun time to be in music, because artists can expose their music to the fans in any way they dream up. There’s more freedom than ever to break the rules.”
