After Fleetwood Mac found itself at the center of skateboarding meme culture for the last week, Stevie Nicks is back to remind us of what makes her so revered in the first place: music. The vocalist returned on Friday with her new single “Show Them the Way” in quite a while and features production by famed studio wizard Greg Kurstin and everyone’s favorite superstar drummer Dave Grohl. The track is inspired by a dream Nicks had involving Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, and John Lewis before the 2008 presidential election, as she mentioned in a recent Los Angeles Times profile. And the six-minute track certainly feels like a dream with its thudding drums and Nicks’ soothing tone. If anything, it should get listeners pumped for Nicks’ 24 Karat Gold the ...

When news of her passing broke, musicians flocked to social media to pay their respects.

I wanted to hold her hand and give her a huge hug and thank her for all she had done for women, and for all she would continue to do.” The members of Pearl Jam took a more straightforward approach with their tribute, writing, “A life that was the very definition of servic...

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to plague the globe, Stevie Nicks has shared a journal entry, dated Aug. 10, that expressed her feelings about what the Fleetwood Mac singer calls “a real ‘American Horror Story”’ and strongly encourages people to put masks on. “What’s going on in our country now is a real ‘American Horror Story,’” Nicks wrote in the piece posted on Twitter last night (Aug. 11). “Nobody is leading us.
