Maddie & Tae announce new album 'Love & Light'

Writer: Clewes' Country UKClewes' Country UK

Country music’s powerhouse duo, Maddie & Tae, are back with their highly anticipated fourth studio album, Love & Light, set for release on May 2 via Mercury Nashville.



The 16-track album features a mix of previously released fan favorites—"Free Like", "Sad Girl Summer", "Heart They Didn’t Break",—along with today’s brand-new feel-good anthem, "Kissing Cowboys."

A Celebration of Growth, Resilience & Friendship

Produced by Josh Kerr, Chris LaCorte, and Corey Crowder, Love & Light is a deeply personal record, capturing themes of strength, confidence, vulnerability, and the enduring sisterhood that Maddie & Tae have built over the years.


Having grown up together, started families, and navigated career highs and lows, the duo pour their life lessons and hard-earned wisdom into every track.


“The thing about getting older,” says Taylor Kerr, “is realising how much time you spent worrying about things that didn’t really matter. Instead, you should be out there, well… ‘kissing cowboys.’”

New Single ‘Kissing Cowboys’ Out Now

Co-written by Font, Kerr, Luke Dick, and Laura Veltz, "Kissing Cowboys" is a joyful ode to embracing the journey and having fun along the way.


It’s a playful, carefree track that perfectly captures Maddie & Tae’s signature mix of honest storytelling and infectious energy.

An All-Star Lineup of Musicians

For Love & Light, Maddie & Tae brought in some of the most sought-after musicians in country music, including:

🎻 Bryan Sutton – Bluegrass virtuoso

🎸 Danny Rader – ACM Guitarist & Specialty Instrumentalist of the Year

🎵 Jimmie Lee Sloas – Four-time ACM Bassist of the Year

🎸 Kris Donegan – Electric guitar

🥁 Evan Hutchings & Aaron Sterling – Drums


With this stellar lineup, Maddie & Tae elevate their sound, blending organic acoustic richness with bold electric energy—somewhere between Shania Twain’s playful spirit and Miranda Lambert’s grit.

A Sound That Stays True to Their Roots

"We’ve been out on the road, playing for thousands of fans at our own shows," says Kerr.


"And we’ve seen firsthand that people crave songs that tell it like it is—about heartbreak, love, and figuring out who you are."


Font adds, "We stayed true to that signature sound—letting the acoustic instruments shine while threading in just the right amount of electric power to make it hit hard."


Mark your calendars—Love & Light arrives May 2!
