The Chicks’ first Australian tour since 2017 has been met with phenomenal demand, with the trio adding a second and final show in Brisbane after the first concert on Tuesday, 24 October, sold out. The second show will take place the night after the first one, also at Brisbane Entertainment Centre.
The Frontier Members pre-sale begins on Friday, 14 July, at 1 pm local time, before tickets go on sale to the General Public on Monday, 17 July, also at 1 pm local time. You can find your tickets here.
The Chicks now tally an impressive eleven nights across Australia and New Zealand on the Antipodean leg of their World Tour this October – including sold-out Melbourne, Brisbane and Christchurch concerts. Special guest Elle King will join the band on all dates, which you can find below.
The highly influential country and pop music powerhouse consists of lead vocalist Natalie Maines and sisters Martie Maguire (vocals, fiddle, mandolin, guitar) and Emily Strayer (vocals, guitar, banjo, Dobro).
Known for their hits such as Not Ready To Make Nice, Wide Open Spaces, Travelin' Soldier, Cowboy Take Me Away, and their #1 hit on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart, a cover of Fleetwood Mac’s Landslide, The Chicks have been the best-selling country music group in the US since the Nielsen SoundScan era (1991–present) began.
In 2020, The Chicks unveiled their first album in 14 years, Gaslighter, and further solidified their reputation in the country (and mainstream crossover) music world.
Michael Chugg, Executive Chairman of Chugg Entertainment, said about The Chicks' fifth visit down under, “Ever since I heard a demo in the late ’90s and did their first tour in November 1999, The Chicks have been a huge part of my life.
“Watching them become live icons of music has been an amazing journey, and their upcoming tour will go up another level again.”
