Madilyn Paige

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ll be hosting the incredibly talented MADILYN PAIGE at our family retreat! You might remember Madilyn from her amazing journey on Season 6 of “The Voice” back in 2014 when she blew us away at just 16 years old. Not only did she capture our hearts with her mesmerizing performances, but she also found love along the way, meeting her now-husband, Tanner, during the show. And guess what? Tanner will be joining Madilyn onstage for some unforgettable duets during the retreat!

Since her time on “The Voice,” Madilyn has been making waves both at home and abroad, sharing stages with top artists like Jason Derulo, Rachel Platten, and The American Authors. Today, she’s still shining bright as ever, releasing original music that showcases her incredible talent and passion. Be sure to check out her latest heartfelt single, “Patience,” a beautiful ode she wrote for Tanner as an engagement love song. Oh, and did we mention she’s been featured on the annual Strive To Be Youth albums too? Get ready for an unforgettable musical experience with Madilyn Paige at our retreat!
