Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Stevie Nicks will return to the road for a nine date tour that includes an Aug. 19 stop at St. Paul’s Xcel Energy Center.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday through Ticketmaster.
Nicks, 76, joined Fleetwood Mac in 1975 with her then-boyfriend Lindsey Buckingham. Two years later, the duo helped the band make “Rumours,” which has since become one of the best-selling albums of all time, with more than 20 million copies sold in the United States alone.
Fleetwood Mac went on a hiatus after 1979’s “Tusk.” Two years later, Nicks released her debut solo album “Bella Donna,” which spawned the hit duets “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” (with Tom Petty) and “Leather and Lace” (with Don Henley) as well as what became her signature song, “Edge of Seventeen.” Her sophomore record “The Wild Heart” included the single “Stand Back,” which features an uncredited Prince on synthesizer.
The “Rumours”-era lineup of Fleetwood Mac reunited for a wildly popular 1997 tour and Nicks spent the next few decades playing with the band while also maintaining her solo career.
She headlined Xcel Energy Center in 2016 and the Minnesota State Fair Grandstand the following year. In 2018, she joined a new version of Fleetwood Mac — which featured the Heartbreakers’ Mike Campbell and Crowded House’s Neil Finn in place of Buckingham — for a tour that hit Xcel Energy Center that October.
On Nov. 30, 2022, Nicks’ bandmate Christine McVie died at the age of 79. In several interviews in the time since, Nicks has said McVie’s death means the end of Fleetwood Mac.
Nicks is the first woman to have been inducted twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, first with Fleetwood Mac in 1998 and then as a solo artist in 2019.
