Singer-songwriter Maddie Riccardo’s heartfelt single “We’re Around” celebrates family. Her next release, “Band-Aid,” explores love’s complexities.
Emerging artist Maddie Riccardo is making waves in Nashville’s music scene with her heartfelt storytelling and unique blend of country and pop. Her latest single, “We’re Around,” celebrates the unwavering support of her parents throughout her musical journey. As Maddie looks ahead, she prepares to release her next single, “Band-Aid,” a song about love’s challenges and inevitable endings.
“‘Band-Aid’ is about two completely incompatible people that were trying to make it work,” Maddie explains. “Just two people who are not supposed to be together, and then you just keep trying, and it’s just terrible. So you know you have to just rip off the Band-Aid and end it.”
Hailing from Scranton, Pennsylvania, Maddie grew up surrounded by music, inspired by her father’s guitar playing and iconic artists like Bruce Springsteen and Adele. By high school, she was performing in theater, songwriting, and playing at talent shows. She later moved to Nashville to study Music Business at Belmont University, where she balanced her education with recording and live performances at venues such as Tin Roof and the Bluebird Café. 
Maddie’s heartfelt approach shines through her music, turning her personal experiences into relatable stories. Whether celebrating family or reflecting on heartbreak, her songs capture raw emotions and authentic moments.
