Milwaukee Singer-Songwriter Tae On Her Debut Album, 'What Love Is'

Singer-songwriter, Tae, playing the Lake Effect Peformance Studio.

Although Milwaukee singer-songwriter Taeis just 21-years-old, she’s not exactly a newcomer. She’s been performing as a solo artist for nearly a decade, and she began touring with her music last year.

On New Year's Day, she released her first full-length album called “What Love Is.” It explores different parts of her life and experiences, which Tae says is reflective of her creative process.

"I usually write songs after I’ve digested some kind of experience that has been super intense in my life. Writing songs about these super intense feelings reminds me and lets me kind of re-experience those, and take me back," she explains.

Tae is currently touring in cities throughout Wisconsin.
