Country music duo Maddie & Tae announces temporary break as Maddie Marlow Font pursues solo career while Tae Dye Kerr focuses on family life.
Country music duo Maddie & Tae have announced they are taking a break — but assure fans they aren’t breaking up.
In a recent interview with People, Maddie Marlow Font and Tae Dye Kerr shared they decided to take a step back from releasing music as a duo, but made clear the separation is not meant to be permanent.
„We’re leaving this so open-ended because, you know, we might make another record one day“, Font said. „We might go do some tour dates one day.“
The two first met in 2010 and earned their first No. 1 hit in 2014 with their debut single, „Girl in a Country Song.“ Since then, they have released four albums and four EPs, and have received 13 CMA nominations, 11 ACM nominations and six CMT Award nominations.
Tae said that she would be taking a break from music to focus on her family, while Maddie announced she will be working on a solo career. Tae shares her two kids — daughter Leighton, 3, and son Chapel, 13 months — with her husband, Josh Kerr, and Maddie shares her son Forrest, 2, with her husband, Jonah Font.
