Madison Hughes - The Viral Voice

The Viral Voice

Madison Hughes is rapidly emerging as a powerhouse in the Americana music scene, firmly rooted in Nashville.

Her career has already seen incredible moments, including a sensational three-chair turn on The Voice with her stunning rendition of Bob Dylan’s classic, “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door.”

She also took the internet by storm with her electrifying cover of Bruce Springsteen’s “Dancing in the Dark,” which amassed an impressive 8 million views on Instagram.

Her single, “You or the Whiskey,” also earned a coveted spot on Billboard’s “7 Must-Hear Country Songs,” highlighting her growing influence in the industry.

In 2024, she released her critically acclaimed EP, Goodbye to Neverland, and is set to continue her rise with an eagerly anticipated album dropping this Fall.

Billboard raves about Hughes, noting, “Florida native Hughes’ delightfully husky voice is underpinned by an understated, yet hook-driven melody, offering high hit potential.”
