Maddie & Tae -- the fastest rising female act in eight years -- will sing "America the Beautiful" during pre-race ceremonies at the 22nd annual Crown Royal Presents the Jeff Kyle 400 at the Brickyard NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race on Sunday, July 26, at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Maddie & Tae boldly introduced their debut single "Girl In A Country Song," earning a No. 1 at Country radio, GOLD-certification and over 25 million views on VEVO. They are only the third female duo to peak their debut single at No. 1 in the history of the Billboard Country Singles chart. The girls from Texas and Oklahoma, respectively, reveal a gumption rarely seen in newcomers, receiving praise from NPR, Entertainment Weekly, The Washington Post and USA Today, and most recently topping Nashville Scene’s Annual Country Critics' Poll for Single of The Year. With national television appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman and TODAY show under their belt, Maddie & Tae premiered their latest single, "Fly" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Both songs are featured on their upcoming album Start Here, which will be released Aug. 28 on Dot Records. The duo's Grand Ole Opry debut earned kudos from Opry member Brad Paisley, while CMT selected the pair for their Next Women of Country and Country Radio Seminar chose them for the 2015 New Faces class. On the heels of such success, Maddie & Tae continued their winning ways with their first-ever award nomination for Vocal Duo of the Year at the ACM Awards this year. They were also nominated for three CMT Music Awards including Breakthrough Video of the Year. Maddie & Tae are currently on the road for Dierks Bentley’s SOUNDS OF SUMMER TOUR and will be headlining the START HERE TOUR this fall. For the latest updates, visit MaddieandTae.com.
