March 18, 2013 Can you believe it was ten years ago The Dixie Chicks downhill slide began. They were on top of the world, winning awards, selling out concerts and making great music. Then it all changed on a London stage when Natalie Maines opened her mouth to bash President Bush.
The Dixie Chicks and Nashville songwriter Stephony Smith should be looking forward to some nice royalty checks from the 1999 song 'Sin Wagon.' Never released as an official single, the song has gone on to be a long-term career song for the Chicks, and two different groups performed the track on 'American Idol' during group rounds on Wednesday night (Feb. 13).
February 12, 2013 It looks like Dixie Chicks Natalie Maines is going in a different direction. Her solo album 'Mother,' will be out May 7th, but it doesn't sound too country. The title track is a cover of Pink Floyd.
The Dixie Chicks have agreed to a couple of rare live appearances this summer, but that doesn't necessarily mean the Texas-based trio are gearing up for a full-fledged album and tour. In a new interview, singer Natalie Maines expresses uncertainty about the future of the Grammy-winning act.
It's been quite a while since country music fans have heard new material from the Dixie Chicks, but that isn't going to stop the trio's lead singer Natalie Maines from singing. Maines has finished recording her first solo album, which will hit store shelves and digital retailers this spring.
That old saying, “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all” must have fallen on deaf ears at the Natalie Maines household. The Dixie Chicks vocalist rode a storm of criticism on her own Twitter page after cracking a joke at Jason Aldean‘s expense during the 2012 Grammy Awards on Sunday night.
July 27, 2011 Taylor Swift gave props to the Dixie Chicks Sunday night at a concert in Newark New Jersey performing the their number one hit "Cowboy Take Me Away" while giving a shout out to Chick Martie Maguire who was in the audience.

If you're a fan of the Dixie Chicks and Natalie Maines, you'll be happy to know she's back. Sort of. After almost 5 years since recording any new music, Maines is getting back behind the mike. She sings "God Only Knows," an old Beach Boys song, for the HBO series Big Love. The song will play during the shows finale this Sunday March 20th.
If you don't want to wait that long to hear it, you can listen here. You can also purchase the song on iTunes starting today.
