There’s a lot to celebrate for Country duo Maddie & Tae. Following the recent release of their high-energy, summer single about saying goodbye to “Sad Girl Summer,” the duo’s Taylor Kerr [Tae]alsorevealed she is expecting baby number two come fall.

Hours after announcing Tae’s pregnancy on social media, the pair joined Audacy’s Rob + Holly for a CMA Fest interview at Nashville’s Hard Rock Cafe.

“We’re having baby number two late this fall,” Tae shared while showing off her her baby bump in a pink dress. “I have a two-year-old girl, but this one is a boy and Maddie is already a boy mom, so I’m like [asking her] ‘What are all the tips?!’”

Duo partner MaddieFont welcomed her son, ForrestHenry, last September and was more than ready to offer up advice for Tae, as well as supply her with all her best hand-me-downs.

“I gotchu girl,” Maddie said confidently. “I gave her all the hand-me-downs, she’s ready to go! I saved them all [because] I know she wanted a boy so bad so I was manifesting, I had the bag packed ready to go.”

Ready to support her bestie in any way she can, Maddie said her biggest piece of advice for Tae — or any new boy mom — is to “Change diapers quickly!”

“It’s just an art form,” she laughed. “It just has to be fast!”

With growing families, new music and songwriting careers, the duo says they are living the lives they always dreamed of and hope to inspire other women who feel like they have to pick between raising a family and chasing a dream.

“We’ve always wanted to be moms,” Maddie expressed. “Being songwriters and musicians and being moms are like our two biggest dreams in the world. We don’t really sleep a lot and we kinda feel like zombies, but we are doin’ it and I think our goal is to just really show women that you truly can do it all. I can’t guarantee that you will get rest, but you can truly have it all — you don’t have to pick one or the other.”

Living out their dreams have also given the pair new found confidence that shines in their fresh single, “Sad Girl Summer,” available now. “Honestly, we’ve just gotten more confident in life and you can hear that in our songwriting,” shared Tae. “We have this new found confidence, we feel like we can do anything and we’re just havin’ fun.”

Added Maddie, “After you birth a human you’re like, ‘Oh yeah, I got this. I’m OK, I can do anything.”

On that note, the duo wrapped up by sharing they have a new song coming that specifically highlights their journeys as moms on an EP arriving later this fall. “We’ve got a song coming out on an EP later this year that you’ll definitely hear that thread of womanhood and motherhood and just that phase of life that we’re in right now,” shared Tae teasing the new project.

For additional details on new music, their motherhood journeys and so much more, check out Maddie & Tae’s full interview with Audacy’s Rob + Holly at CMA Fest above.
