Nashville, Tenn. – Singer-songwriter Madison Hughes, Season 22 contestant on NBC’s The Voice, has released a new single called “The Heartbreak Kid.” The song debuted today and is available on Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube, and other platforms.
“I’m excited to release the “The Heartbreak Kid” today. I truly believe it’s my best work yet,” said Madison Hughes. “When I first saw the lyrics, they directly resonated with me. To me, it’s a commentary on dating woes and falling for heartbreakers who charm then leave you. Though I allude to past famous heartbreakers, they still exist and break hearts today. The intention is to be playful but also truthful. I’m confident this single will resonate with others, as well.”
The song was written by her frequent co-writer Rich Deans. “The Heartbreak Kid” is a follow-up song to Hughes’ previous country single “You or the Whiskey” – which was dubbed “7 Must Hear Country Songs” by Billboard Magazine, featured on Fox News’ The Five Show, and Spotify’s New Friday Country Music playlist. The song went viral on TikTok receiving 500,000 plays and now “The Heartbreak Kid” is surpassing that number.
Madison Hughes is originally from Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida. She began her musician journey at a young age. In Fall 2022, she competed on NBC’s The Voice on Team Blake and got three chair turns for her rendition of Bob Dylan’s “Knockin on Heaven’s Door.” She’s since released three independent singles and is currently working on projects with producers Justin Weaver and Lera Lynn/Todd Lombardo.
