About
The Chicks, formerly the Dixie Chicks, are an American country music band from Dallas, Texas. The band consists of Natalie Maines (lead vocals, guitar, bass guitar) and sisters Martie Maguire (vocals, fiddle, mandolin, guitar) and Emily Strayer (vocals, guitar, banjo, Dobro).
Martie and Emily (both née Erwin) founded the Dixie Chicks in 1989 with bassist Laura Lynch and singer and guitarist Robin Lynn Macy. They performed bluegrass and country music, busking and touring the bluegrass festival circuits and small venues for six years. In 1992, Macy left the group with Lynch taking over vocals. After independently releasing three albums, in 1995, the Dixie Chicks were signed by Monument Records Nashville and Natalie Maines replaced Lynch. They released their first album with Monument, Wide Open Spaces, in 1998, followed by Fly in 1999. Both albums were certified diamond.
In 2003, while on stage in London, the Dixie Chicks publicly criticized the US president George W. Bush and the imminent Iraq War, triggering a backlash and damaging sales of their 2002 album Home. They released Taking the Long Way in 2006 and entered hiatus in 2008; Martie and Emily recorded as a duo, Court Yard Hounds. The Dixie Chicks reunited in 2016 for a series of tours. In 2020, they removed "Dixie" from their name due to negative connotations, and released their first album in 14 years, Gaslighter.
The Chicks have charted 22 times on the American Billboard Hot Country Songs charts; "There's Your Trouble", "Wide Open Spaces", "You Were Mine", "Cowboy Take Me Away", "Without You", and "Travelin' Soldier" all reached number one. The Chicks have received 13 Grammy Awards, ten Country Music Association awards and eight Academy of Country Music awards. By July 2020, with 33 million certified albums sold and sales of 27.9 million albums in the US, the Chicks had become the best-selling all-woman band and best-selling country group since Nielsen SoundScan began recording sales in 1991.

The Chicks (anciennement Dixie Chicks jusqu'en 2020) est un groupe américain de country, originaire de Dallas, au Texas. Il explore divers genres musicaux avec succès, en particulier la country, le bluegrass et la pop. Le groupe se compose des sœurs Martie Maguire et Emily Robison ainsi que de la chanteuse principale Natalie Maines.
Le groupe est formé en 1989 à Dallas au Texas, et est composé au départ de quatre jeunes femmes passionnées de bluegrass et de country. Cette première formation écume les festivals de bluegrass durant six ans, et bien qu'il se fasse un nom sur la scène bluegrass texane, il ne réussit jamais à percer au niveau national. Après le départ de deux membres (dont la chanteuse principale), les Chicks modifient leur répertoire et rencontrent un succès à grande échelle dans le milieu de la country et de la pop. Les premiers tubes datent de 1998 avec la sortie de leur album Wide Open Spaces. Les trois jeunes femmes deviennent célèbres non seulement pour leur talent musical, mais aussi pour la diffusion de leurs opinions concernant des sujets d'intérêt public tels que la guerre en Irak et la situation politique américaine.
Lors d'un concert à Londres en 2003, dix jours avant l'invasion de l'Irak par les troupes américaines, la chanteuse Natalie Maines déclare « Nous ne voulons pas de cette guerre ni de cette violence, et nous avons honte que notre président (George W. Bush) soit originaire du Texas » (les Chicks étant elles-mêmes texanes). Ce commentaire est très mal reçu par une grande partie de l'auditoire country dont les idées politiques sont traditionnellement ancrées à droite, du côté conservateur. The Chicks sont accusées d'antipatriotisme. Les conséquences sont importantes pour le groupe; les ventes d'albums et de billets s'écroulent, les messages de haine se multiplient, avec une menace de mort dirigée contre Natalie Maines et des actes de vandalisme pratiqués par des intrus au domicile d'Emily Robison.
Malgré cet épisode, The Chicks ont remporté 13 Grammy Awards, dont 5 datant de 2007 pour leur album Taking the Long Way, sorti après cette dernière controverse. C'est le groupe country féminin ayant vendu le plus d'albums country dans le monde avec plus de 30,5 millions écoulés depuis ses débuts en 1990.
