Biografia
Nicks boasts a long string of hits as both the Fleetwood Mac frontwoman and a solo singer-songwriter. While she’s known for moody, poetic lyricism drawing on painful relationships, her intense theatrical presence onstage makes her live performances unforgettable.
Before Nicks became a best-selling artist, she was an avid young music enthusiast. She shared a passion for the country genre with her grandfather and often sang duets alongside him as a toddler. Eventually, this devoted love helped Nicks find her voice and realize her creative talent.
After joining bands throughout high school, Nicks stumbled upon her soon-to-be bandmate and romantic partner Lindsey Buckingham. The pair dove headfirst into the ’70s music scene with original demo tapes and albums. Although the Buckingham-Nicks collaboration didn’t perform as well as expected, the duo’s team-up – and their tempestuous relationship – set the tone for a future with the band Fleetwood Mac.
Nicks proved her expertise during Fleetwood Mac’s steady rise to fame. She claimed her spot as a vocalist and helped steer the band toward an iconic debut. Fleetwood Mac’s debut self-titled album featured numerous songwriting credits from the frontwoman.
“Rhiannon” and “Landslide” – both written by Nicks – quickly became certified classics thanks to her impressive vocal talent. It launched the group’s 1975 full-length release to historical heights, marking a memorable beginning to a legendary career.
Nicks played a crucial role in Fleetwood Mac’s growing discography. Besides the band’s stellar debut LP, Nicks’s contributions to later projects like Rumours, Tusk, and Mirage cemented her reputation as a creative force to be reckoned with. She was a pivotal piece to the band’s ever-changing image.
The singer backed up her songwriting skills with breathtaking live performances. Her on-stage presence showcased true star potential, especially with her unique voice and rock ‘n’ roll energy. No one denied her ability to captivate the crowd and take the stage by storm. Naturally, it wasn’t a surprise when Nicks decided to go solo and step away from the Fleetwood Mac spotlight.
As she pursued solo projects, Nicks expanded her vocal and songwriting versatility. Studio albums like Bella Donna, The Wild Heart, Rock a Little, and The Other Side of the Mirror helped her break into the ’80s music scene. “Edge of Seventeen,” “Stand Back,” “Nightbird,” and other chart-topping singles symbolized her rock royalty status. Her presence and fame only rose higher as the modern-day music era rolled around.
Nicks recorded eight solo studio albums, earned multi-platinum status, and garnered plenty of number one hits. Her work alongside Fleetwood Mac helped the band achieve a highly acclaimed reputation and recognized her power as an in-demand artist.
In 2018, Nicks made her way into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Because of her previous induction with Fleetwood Mac in 1998, this marked the first time a woman secured multiple spots as a rock honoree.
Today, Nicks continues her venture as one of the greatest female musicians. Many stars like Lorde, HAIM, Taylor Swift, and Harry Styles cite the singer as a huge driving force in their careers. She often offers a helping hand to these pop phenoms, performing alongside them on stage and sharing her talent with new and long-time fans.
Nicks’ time with Fleetwood Mac made her a certified success. Ultimately, her knack for songwriting, groundbreaking performances, and supreme vocals took her a step further. There’s no doubt her legacy as a rock legend will live on forever.

Stevie Nicks was outstanding! I read some negative reviews online from people who had seen the show and I disagree with all of them! Some said she talked too much between songs but I loved her stories on how the songs came to be. Also, her voice was in perfect form. She did some songs from her black gothic trunk as she called it that nobody had heard and they were great songs. She of course did some of her biggest hits and the audience went wild. Now, for the negative. Parking! We missed the Pretenders completely because the parking situation was a mess. It took over an hour from turning onto to the street the venue was on only to get directed all the way around the venue to the overflow parking lot. So many people missed them because of it.Could have been avoided with better planning by the venue. They knew the show was sold out! Cmon people. Very disappointing. 5 stars for Stevie! She still rocks!
Her solo show was awsome!!
She played all my favorite songs plus some new stuff .
She did an awesome tribute to New Orleans about Hurricane Katrina ..titled " New Orleans",
Which a lot of people never heard her song before .
Her voice was strong and sounded so good the musicians all played very well too!
I love the fact that she told a story along with all her music songs.. she connected with her fans it was very entertaining ..
I love the Pretenders !!
They played awesome too! They sounded just like the early 90's!! Chrissy Hines looks great Too!
They still got it going on and have many classic songs..
I would go back and see Stevie Nicks agsinnin the future..
she looked great Too!!
Well first off Stevie was amazing! the concert was amazing The Pretenders were awesome! but there was one thing that really made me mad was when during the concert a drunk woman from a row behind us fell on top of us she really did kinda hurt us she fell on us and just laid there on the ground for a good 5 mins then decides to get up and go get another beer but when she went to go down the stairs she slipped on the last step and fell down again! I'm very unhappy with the way they didn't kick her out for being too drunk to go down stairs they didn't even have a staff member come check on us when the woman fell and a staff member saw the whole thing happen.
I had waited a long time for this and was not disappointed at all!! Stevie was amazing, her voice is as good as it was years ago. Video does not do her justice! She told some stories about her songs which We found really interesting!! Some of her vault songs are truly beautiful and thankfully she got them out! If she comes back am deffinately going back to see her. She twirled and did the crazy dance in gold dust woman. Amazing concert Stevie!! We love you!!
Stevie is a ballarina of lyrics and can dance harmony into your soul, and she did in May when I saw her at MGM. She was magical the first time, and then she came back with Fleetwood mac in December when she put on another fantastic show. Her love for Lindsey showed in every song and when they cried on their duet there was no dry eyes in the arena. Stevie shines and her songs are life full of experance as you should of seen
The show was great Stevie and Chrissy can still sing amazingly ❤❤. But one thing, I couldn't hear Stevie talking from where I was out the back. But I do know she talked alot and sort of got the crowd hyped with a song then the mood swayed to boredom until the next song. May have been better if I could hear what she was saying. All in all though was a great concert.
Well parking issues were a disaster very unorganized so we missed the pretenders and beginning of Stevie and then we had seat jumpers in our seats very sad the for the money that we pay for those seats that we didn't even catch that maybe 7 songs if that only Stevie Nicks
Not a bad show, her voice is still awesome as it was 40 years ago. Great set list of songs, however, her show was a bit slow because she talked about each song, and started side tracking on her stories. The band was great and so was her backup singers...
It rates right up there as one of the best concerts I've been to!!! For a 68 year old woman, Stevie still has the moves and the pipes she had when she was 20!!! Loved her stories and the songs she included that were not heard before!!!One fantastic show!!!
