About Maddie Poppe
Since winning American Idol in 2018 Maddie has grown tremendously, as both a person and an artist. The Iowa native has evolved from folksy singer-songwriter into a multi-faceted powerhouse artist and musician. Maddie, now 25, can still very much bowl over a crowd with only her honeyed voice and acoustic guitar. But she’s upped her game by tapping into a modern sound that blends R&B, pop, and Americana and committing herself to writing her own songs. In Spring 2019, following Maddie’s coronation on American Idol, her debut album Whirlwind was released. By summer, the record hit #2 on the charts. Whirlwind featured four radio singles, including two top-25s – “Made You Miss” and “Not Losing You”. The year saw Maddie win a People’s Choice Award, guest star on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Live With Kelly & Ryan and Good MorningAmerica, and tour in support of Ingrid Michaelson.
For 2023, Maddie is gearing up for a national tour featuring her new music and biggest hits. She’s excited to introduce her fans to the special sound she’s created, shaped by the diversity of her favorite artists (LilyAllen, Sheryl Crow, and Corinne Bailey Rae are all in rotation on Maddie’s Spotify).“I’m thrilled to release new music, but even more excited to play these songs live,” Maddie says. “Almost everything I’m writing is upbeat and will be so much fun to perform with the energy of a live audience. For a long time, I simply thought of myself as a singer-songwriter, a hometown girl from Iowa. Along the way, I learned to spread my wings and branch out. I truly feel I’ve become the artist I was meant to be.”Maddie’s US tour kicks off in Spring 2023.
