Taking the Long Way Tour

About The Chicks Tickets

The Chicks — Natalie Maines, Martie Maguire, and Emily Strayer — are the biggest-selling female band in U.S. history, with more than 30.5 million albums sold and 13 Grammy Awards to their name. Formed in Dallas in 1989 and supercharged when Maines joined in 1995, the trio fused bluegrass virtuosity with soaring pop vocals and fearless storytelling, producing signature hits like "Wide Open Spaces," "Cowboy Take Me Away," and "Not Ready to Make Nice" that transcend genre lines. They remain the only female group to achieve multiple diamond-certified releases, and their influence stretches across generations of fans who fell in love with country music because of them.

In 2026, The Chicks are hitting the road harder than ever, with summer headlining dates, festival appearances at Boots and Hearts and the Illinois State Fair, and select stadium shows alongside Tim McGraw on his Pawn Shop Guitar Tour. The crown jewel is the newly announced Taking the Long Way 20th Anniversary Tour, a 16-date fall run through intimate theaters — from the Fox Theatre in Detroit to the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood — where they will perform their defiant 2006 masterpiece in its entirety for the very first time. That album topped the Billboard 200, swept five Grammys including Album of the Year, and cemented the trio as courageous disruptors who turned industry backlash into one of the most triumphant chapters in modern music.

Seeing The Chicks live is a masterclass in musicianship — tight three-part harmonies, fiddle and banjo work that can silence an arena, and a stage presence built over three decades of performing together. The intimate theater format of the anniversary tour means every seat puts you closer to that energy, making these some of the most sought-after tickets of the year. Whether you have been a fan since "Wide Open Spaces" first hit the radio or you discovered them through the story behind Taking the Long Way, this is the kind of moment live music was made for.

What makes The Chicks' album Taking the Long Way significant?

Why did the Dixie Chicks change their name to The Chicks?

The Dixie Chicks officially rebranded as The Chicks in June 2020, removing the word "Dixie" from their name amid a broader cultural conversation about its historical associations with the Confederacy and the American South. The trio — Natalie Maines, Martie Maguire, and Emily Strayer — made the change in the same period that several other artists were also reevaluating names tied to similar connotations. The group has performed and released music as The Chicks ever since, including the 2020 album Gaslighter and now the upcoming Taking the Long Way 20th Anniversary Tour.

Who are the members of The Chicks?

The trio is one of the best-selling female acts in country music history, with a catalog anchored by the five-time Grammy-winning album Taking the Long Way — now being celebrated on their 2026 anniversary tour.

What other recent milestones have The Chicks achieved leading up to the 2026 Taking the Long Way Anniversary Tour?

In the years leading up to the Taking the Long Way 20th Anniversary Tour, The Chicks released Gaslighter in 2020 — their first studio album in 14 years — and simultaneously rebranded from the Dixie Chicks to The Chicks. The group returned to large-scale touring in the years that followed before announcing their packed 2026 calendar, which includes summer stadium dates, guest appearances on Tim McGraw's tour, and the intimate fall anniversary run.
