Maddie Kadlec is 24-year-old singer-songwriter based in Minneapolis who writes folk songs with jazz influences. As a multi-instrumentalist, she plays 5 instruments including guitar, bass, keys, ukulele, and accordion. Her main musical passion is voice.

During their 3 year Friday-night residency at Breezy Point resort and hundreds of performances around Minnesota, Maddie honed her musical craft and learned the joy of songwriting. She later went on to study music and received a Bachelor's degree in Vocal Music Education from Concordia College. She has been an educator for 3 years and loves sharing learning through music.
