Maddie & Tae Share New Single ‘Sad Girl Summer’

Country duo Maddie & Tae recently shared their latest single, “Sad Girl Summer.”

Contrary to its title, “Sad Girl Summer” is a vibrant, up-tempo track that celebrates one’s newfound freedom following a breakup.

“This ain’t no sad girl summer, girl, we’re sayin’ goodbye/ To that bummer of a boy who’d been makin’ you cry/ There’s a good time waitin’, quit wastin’ your time/ Let’s get somethin’ new cookin’, ooh, ’cause you lookin’/ Hot, hot, hotter than a hundred degrees/ Think of the shots, shots, shots you could be gettin’ for free/ I know that a broken heart hurts like a mother/ But this ain’t no sad girl summer,” the duo sings.

Maddie & Tae revealed that they co-wrote the song with Taylor Kerr‘s husband, Josh Kerr.

“‘Sad Girl Summer’ was such a blast to write. We co-wrote this with Tae’s husband, Josh Kerr, wanting to create an empowering summertime anthem for our fans to jam to this year!” they said. “This song is the first look at the bold, confident songwriting you’ll hear woven through this upcoming chapter of music for us.”

Maddie & Tae are currently on their headlining Here’s To Friends Tour and are set to perform at CMA Fest on June 8.
