“I’m very proud I get to call this song mine,” Maddie wrote on Twitter, “I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did making it. Excited for you all to join me on this new chapter of music! #FirstAidKit.”
The singer also announced her next single, “Little Things,” will be released on March 1st, and that she has plans to release a full album on May 17th.
“I’m really excited to release ‘First Aid Kit’ because it feels like it’s authentically me. It’s about finding someone who helps you heal from a broken heart and learning to love again,” explained Maddie. “I love the message of this song, and it feels incredible to release something that I feel such a personal connection to. It’s very heartwarming”
On upcoming single, “Little Things,” Maddie says: “This is a special song- it was written specifically for me, inspired by my relationship with Caleb.” Maddie began dating fellow Idol contestant, Caleb Lee Hutchinson while filming the show, and shares that he has been a big source of inspiration for her music. “I couldn’t believe how much every word rings true to my relationship and how it feels when we’re apart.”
