More about this title

About the Artist: Maddie And Tae

Maddie Marlow and Tae Dye burst onto the country music scene with a sound that bridged the gap between traditional country songwriting and contemporary pop sensibility. Their partnership, both musical and personal, brought fresh energy to a genre often dominated by solo artists, proving that vocal harmony and modern production could coexist authentically within country music.

As educators working with student choirs, you'll find Maddie and Tae's catalog particularly valuable because their songs demonstrate how contemporary artists craft hooks and melodies that stick with audiences while maintaining genuine emotional core. Their work shows young singers that inspiration and relatability matter just as much as technical virtuosity.

Why we love this

Ed Lojeski's arrangement captures what makes this song linger in listeners' ears: those natural vocal harmonies translate brilliantly to SATB voicing without requiring superhuman technical demands. Programming this means your choir gets a piece with genuine crossover appeal that will energize your audience while building confidence in your singers through achievable, rewarding music.

What to expect

Sitting somewhere between arena pop and honest country storytelling, this piece radiates optimism without veering into saccharine territory. The natural vocal blend feels like overhearing confident friends trading encouragement, warm and genuine rather than belted or oversold.

Who it's for

This arrangement suits upper level high school choirs, college non-majors ensembles, and community choruses seeking contemporary material that connects with modern audiences. Directors wanting to program something that bridges the gap between musical theater and straight pop will find this perfectly suited to mixed-level groups.

How to get the most out of it

  • Balance the vocal lines so the melody stays prominent while the harmonic layers support rather than compete. Country pop arrangements depend on clarity within the blend.
  • Let the accompaniment establish the groove early; students often rush or drag in unfamiliar idioms, so locking into the recorded track during rehearsals prevents this from derailing your performances.
  • Shape phrases through the message rather than through dramatic dynamic swells. These lyrics work best when delivered conversationally, as though your singers genuinely believe the encouragement they're singing.

How to use it

Include this in a spring concert that celebrates growth and resilience, pairing it with other contemporary selections to show range. This also works beautifully as an uplifting closer to any concert where you want audiences leaving energized rather than contemplative.

Skills your students will build

  • Blending four-part harmony in contemporary style
