Maddie & Tae just hit the road with Dierks Bentley, Kip Moore and Canaan Smith for the Sounds of Summer Tour, and Tae says, “We could not be more excited to be with these group a guys.” Not only do the girls plan to take full advantage of the opportunity to watch their shows and learn from them, but they’re hopeful they might even get a chance to write with some of the guys since they’re all songwriters.
On a lighter note, Tae says, “I’m kind of excited to see how the pranks keep goin’. You know, Maddie and I, we’re not very good prankers, but we’re good at getting pranked. So, I have a feeling we’ll be the targets most the time, but I don’t care as long as we’re involved ‘cause it’s too fun not to be.”
Maddie & Tae will be performing some of the music off their new album, Start Here, which they including their latest single “Fly,” and other unreleased songs, which will be available on August 28th.
