Maddie & Tae to Perform at the 2024 Salinas Valley Fair in King City on May 18!

 

KING CITY, CA – The Salinas Valley Fair is excited to be celebrating the 80th annual Salinas Valley Fair May 16-19, 2024 at

the Salinas Valley Fairgrounds, 625 Division Street.

Maddie & Tae, an award-winning duo, is scheduled to perform at the Salinas Valley Fair on Saturday, May 18. Their

unbreakable bond, honest songwriting and “some of the tightest harmonies on Music Row” (Rolling Stone) are

channeled into their new collection of songs Through The Madness Vol. 2, out now. The pair, Maddie Font and Taylor

Kerr, drew praise for their Gold-certified The Way It Feels album, including the Double Platinum-certified No. 1 hit, “Die

From A Broken Heart” – topping the Country Airplay Charts, Maddie & Tae became the first and only female twosome

with multiple No. 1s. In 2013, “Girl In A Country Song” took country radio by storm, establishing them as only the third

female duo in 70 years to top the Country Airplay Charts. “Woman You Got” recently took home Group/Duo Video of

the Year at the CMT Music Awards. Maddie & Tae have earned trophies from Radio Disney Music Awards, CMA Awards,

ACM, Billboard, and CMT Award nominations. The celebrated duo has toured with Carrie Underwood, Dierks Bentley,

and Brad Paisley.
