The Chicks Mark 20th Anniversary of 'Taking The Long Way' with Two San Antonio Concerts
The run will revisit the band’s Grammy-winning 2006 album era with intimate theater shows and 16 dates across major U.S. cities.
- The 13-time Grammy-winning Chicks announced a 16-date Taking the Long Way 20th anniversary tour launching September 30 at Detroit's Fox Theatre and concluding November 1-2 at Hollywood's Dolby Theatre across 10 U.S. cities.
- After a 13-year hiatus ended in 2020, the trio released Gaslighter, their only album in two decades since Taking the Long Way emerged following industry backlash for Maines' anti-war comments.
- Taking the Long Way topped the Billboard 200 and earned five Grammy Awards, with Not Ready to Make Nice winning both record and song of the year—a rare trifecta in the Grammys' top three categories.
- Artist presale tickets begin June 3 for those signing up by May 31, with general on-sale June 4 at 10 a.m. local time via Live Nation, covering two-night stands in Chicago, New York, San Antonio, Seattle and San Francisco.
- Before the fall theater tour, the trio opens four stadium shows for Tim McGraw in July and August, with Natalie Maines saying the album remains "the most recognized time in our career." Summer dates also include Atlantic City, Highland, Lincoln, Missoula and Springfield.
