Maddi Jane's upbringing focused on Christian Youth Theatre, shaping her passion for the arts, and homeschooling with her parents, who hold PhDs in psychology. At age 11, Maddi posted a cover of "Breakeven" by the Script on YouTube, and it went viral, receiving thousands of views a day and catching the attention of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." Each video she uploaded built on the virality of the previous; her covers of Jesse J's "Price Tag" and Shontelle's "Impossible" have reached a combined 180 million views, and her channel has grown to 1.55 million subscribers and 450+ million views. Maddi continued producing original music and attending writing camps, eventually moving to Los Angeles, where she built a recording studio in her garage to produce for herself and others. She recently released her debut album, "Rapha," which has garnered over 300,000 streams, many performances and a SXSW appearance. In 2024, Maddi plans to release her second studio album, tour and appear on "The Voice" Season 25.
