The Chicks release new album Gaslighter
It's their first album under the group's new name. The Chicks, formerly the Dixie Chicks, dropped their highly anticipated new album, "Gaslighter" on Friday. It's the first album in nearly 14 years from the country music group. The album has 12 songs and features their new single, "March, March," a tribute to protests for equality and social issues. Their last album, Taking the Long Way, won a Grammy for album of the year.
With new name and album, The Chicks voices ring loud again
The fallout became country music lore, a warning to stay away from political talk, especially of the liberal kind. On Juliana Calm Down, their daughters and nieces are name-checked in a song that encourages young women to keep their heads held high when struggling through lifes obstacles. Their last album, 2006's Taking The Long Way, earned five Grammys, including album of the year, and won over masses of fans who never listened to them before. But its unlikely the fans who turned their back on The Chicks 17 years ago are going to feel any different about their return. But The Chicks think younger music fans dont adhere to that idea.
Dixie Chicks are finally back with a new song
If you look up the definition of โgaslightโ in the dictionary, it will tell you โto cause a person to doubt his or her sanity through the use of psychological manipulation,โ and thatโs what the Dixie Chicksโ new song, โGaslighter," is exactly about. Itโs hard to believe, but itโs been 14 years since weโve been blessed with a new album from these country queens, and it seems like theyโre picking up right where they left off after the success of their hit song โNot Ready To Make Nice.โThe Dixie Chicks have never been afraid to say what they think. Who can forget when they made those comments about President George W. Bush? The Dixie Chicks donโt hold anything back, and Maines has never sounded better ripping through the verses of the song. The album โGaslighterโ officially drops May 1, and until then, you can play the song โGaslighterโ over and over and over again.
