At first listen, Maddie & Tae’s first two singles, “Girl in a Country Song” and “Fly” are very different songs, but Tae Dye says, “They’re also a lot alike, because they empower people, whether it be with ‘Girl’, you’re kind of demanding respect, or ‘Fly’, and you’re just saying, ‘Heh, it’s gonna be hard sometimes, but keep going.’ So, that’s what was really cool for us, is we did release two totally different songs, but we got to keep our same message and our same truth, because we love to empower people and we love empower ourselves.”
Both “Girl in a Country Song” and “Fly” are featured on Maddie & Tae’s debut album, Start Here, which is available now.
