- Fly. More than 20 years after this country classic debuted at number one on the Billboard charts, a few truths still hang in the dusty air: Boys will always take you on a “wild goose chase,” a bird can’t sing when you’ve “tied its wings” and Earl had to die.
- Wide Open Spaces. The opening track on The Chicks’ 1998 debut album (at least in their current lineup) Wide Open Spaces, “I Can Love You Better” introduced us to the trio’s springiness and sass right away.
- Home. Maybe more than anything else, the Dixie Chicks are detailed and vivid storytellers with the ability to deliver an anecdote from multiple perspectives.
- Gaslighter. The Chicks have never tolerated liars, cheaters or scoundrels. They coaxed dirty secrets from their lovers’ mouths on “Let ‘Er Rip,” promising strength in the face of the truth.

It was apparent very early that Sony/Monument was onto something good when they released the “debut” album from sisters Martie Erwin Maguire and Emily Erwin Robison and lead singer Natalie Maines in 1998. Yes, the ladies had the moxie and stage presence to match with Faith Hill and Shania Twain, but songs like “I Can Love You Better,” “There’s Your...
The following year, the Chicks returned to record store shelves with a disc that took everything they did on Wide Open Spacesand expanded it a notch further. The ballads – such as “Cold Day In July” and “Heartbreak Town” – were just as potent and dramatic as before, and the uptempo fare – with “Sin Wagon” and “Goodbye Earl” being two of the most pr...
By 2006, it had been three years since the infamous quotes from Maines that knocked the group off of country radio. Though the music from this album didn’t return them to the airwaves, tracks like the chilling “Not Ready To Make Nice” and the musically and lyrically inventive “Easy Silence,” this album showed that their musical integrity was as dee...
It took a lot of guts to release this Bluegrass-inspired set in the fall of 2002. “Long Time Gone” definitely wasn’t something that could be found coming out of the radio in a large fashion. Still, the pristine melodies and harmonies of tracks like “Travellin’ Soldier” and their cover of “Landslide” served notice that the Dixie Chicks were on their...

- Taking The Long Way. “This band from Dallas has its roots in traditional country, with a focus on vocal harmonies. The Long Way Around is about the experience of receiving death threats after criticizing the invasion of Iraq.
