About

The Chicks in Concert

For nearly three decades, Natalie Maines, Emily Robison, and Marie Maguire have been wowing audiences with their decidedly modern take on classic country, channeling the boldness of past greats like Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton while adding hints of fiddle and banjo to robust, harmony-rich pop gems. Their lengthy career has led to collaborations with fellow Texan Beyoncé on her country-fried ‘Lemonade' track "Daddy Lessons" and providing harmonies for comedy hero—and bluegrass champion—Steve Martin on the gorgeous ballad "You," while also captivating audiences around the world with their astonishing talent and seamless update of classic Americana. 

Formed in Dallas in 1989, The Chicks (formerly known as "The Dixie Chicks") began as a bluegrass band, with sisters Maguire and Robison showing off their instrumental talents (Maguire's know-how includes double bass, mandolin, and viola; Robison's repertoire includes dobro, lap steel, and sitar) on bluegrass and country chestnuts. As the Chicks' stature grew, their music added more contemporary touches, which led to Lubbock-born Natalie Maines joining the group as lead singer in 1995. ‘Wide Open Spaces,' the group's rollicking, major-label debut and first album with Maines on vocals, was a smash critically and commercially, winning the 1999 Grammy for Best Country Album, selling 12 million copies, and launching three singles, including the title track and the rueful "There's Your Trouble," to the top spot on Billboard's Country Songs chart. ‘Fly,' released in 2000, also won the Best Country Album Grammy, and singles like the vengeful "Goodbye Earl" and the longing "Without You" became touchstones for 21st-century Nashville; ‘Home,' its 2002 follow-up, featured the group's crystalline reinvention of Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide" and their wartime chronicle "Travelin' Soldier." While the Chicks haven't released a studio album since 2006's ‘Taking the Long Way,' the group's resilience and continued honing of their craft shine on the 2017 live album ‘DCX MMXVI Live,' a memento of their 2015-2016 tour where they showcased a wide range of influences, covering not only Beyoncé but punk-blues duo The White Stripes and neo-miserablist Lana Del Rey in between renditions of their indelible hits.

    Dixie Chicks were Amazing!

    by NfDixieMomma on 10/29/13Rogers Arena - Vancouver

    Finally seeing these 3 ladies on stage was so worth the 6 year wait and the 3 hour car ride. I would see them again in a heartbeat anytime they come close to Seattle. My girls have grown up listening to their music and I love the messages their songs teach. Keep singing ladies!!

    Absolutely bone chilling fantastic show!!!

    by wailea79 on 8/28/10Saddledome - Calgary, Canada

    What can you say about a show that not only meets but exceeds your expectations? I liked the Chicks coming in, I LOVED them going out. Great stage presence, quality sound, fun, touching... they covered it all. Natalie's voice is even stronger and more amazing in person, rarely can you say that about an artist. Chilling versions of "Top of the World," "Not Ready to Make Nice," and the heartbreaking "Travelling Soldier" brought the entire place to a breath-holding standstill. I embrace the opportunity to see these A-class performers again in the future.

    WOW!

    by TriniLiyah on 7/4/10Oakland Arena - Oakland

    The absolute best concert I EVER went to...I was just thinking about it today, years later and how amazing the experience was. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see them live again. I remember none of my friends at the time liked country...no, they wouldn't give country a chance because it wasn't "cool" and I went alone. The Dixie fans there did not make me feel alone at all! I was 19 yrs old at the time. They are breathaking live, so soulful and touching.

    An absolute MUST see!!

    by IamLe on 9/24/09Susquehanna Bank Center - Camden

    It was an unforgettable evening with the Chicks! I remember it was only days after the "Bush" comment made by Natalie Maines. This was important, because the 'incident ' played a large role in the feel of the atmosphere in that arena. All that attended were die hard Chicks fans, cause if you weren't you wouldn't be caught dead there. I was one of those that attended, I'm so glad I went. I will never forget Natalie Maines screaming and banging away on that acoustic (and banging her head), Martie Maguire singing melody/harmony while making that fiddle look like an extra appendage of her body, while Emily Robison, also singing harmony, picked at that Banjo like she'd been spewn out of the womb with it! Just amazing! Since that night I've attended 129 other concerts. And, by the time you've read this, it will most likely be a couple more. You could say, I'm a music junkie. But out of all those shows and concerts (which include artists such as Marilyn Manson, Van Morrison, Motley Crue, Allison Kraus and Foreigner), I can honestly say, the Dixie chicks were amongst my most memorable. A definite MUST see!!!!! (please go on tour again chicks...PLEASE!!!)
