- Artist Name: Madeline Mae
- Hometown: Wetumpka, AL
What project(s) are you currently working on?
I’m currently working on a single, which should be out very very soon, and an EP or an album.
What inspired you to pursue a career in music and when did you know?
The passion I had for singing and performing is what inspired me to pursue this career. From the time I could talk, I was singing, and that was all I ever wanted to do. When I was ten or eleven, I had decided that I wanted to be a country artist, that that is what I wanted to be when I got older. It’s a blessing that I have a chance to pursue a dream I’ve had since I was a kid.
If you weren’t pursuing a career in music, what would you be doing for a living?
If I wasn’t pursuing a career in music, I would definitely be a marine biologist. I’ve always loved the ocean and all of it’s sea creatures.
What is your favorite downtime activity?
My favorite downtime activity still has to do with music. I love writing songs when there is no deadline or pressure to do so. It helps me relax because I can put every emotion I felt that day into a song and express myself in a different way than just talking.
Who is your biggest celebrity crush?
At the moment, I don’t think I even have one, but I’m sure if I do, I’ll remember him a little too late for this interview.
Who is your favorite sports team(s)?
I don’t really watch many sports, but since I’m from Alabama where Auburn versus Alabama is a huge thing, I’ll go with Auburn.
What is the last movie that you watched?
I think the last movie I watched was “The Maze Runner”.
What is the last album you listened to?
I can’t remember what the last album I listened to was, but the last song I listened to was “Sugar Coat” by Little Big Town.
If you could only listen to one album for the rest of your life, what would it be?
That’s a hard call. Maybe Carrie Underwood’s “Storyteller” album.
What is the greatest country song of all time?
I can’t tell you the greatest country song of all time because there are too many amazing ones, but one of my favorites is “She Said Yes” by Rhett Akins. I absolutely adore this song. Also, George Strait’s song “I Can Still Make Cheyenne” is another one I enjoy.
What has been your favorite city/town that you’ve visited out on the road?
I enjoyed playing in Hardinsburg, Kentucky because my family who has never had a chance to see me play live got the chance to this past year. I really loved that they were able to see me do something I am so passionate about.
What is your favorite meal?
My favorite meal is probably white bean chili.
Who is your dream duet partner?
I have two dream duet partners, Ashley McBryde or Miranda Lambert. They are both such amazing artists.
Who would you like to go on tour with?
I would love to go on tour with Carrie Underwood. She is such an outstanding performer, and her shows seem like they would be a lot of fun.
What is your ultimate career goal(s)?
