Stevie Nicks is in the process of creating a new album
Stevie Nicks, iconic singer and songwriter, has recently shared exciting news with her fans. During her induction into the Pollstar Hall of Fame, Nicks revealed that she is currently working on a new album. She referred to this upcoming project as a “ghost record,” explaining that it all started in the aftermath of the devastating Los Angeles wildfires. Despite the chaos and upheaval caused by the fires, Nicks found herself inspired to dive back into music.
Being forced to evacuate her home in Southern California due to the fires, Nicks spent over three months in a hotel. It was during this time of solitude and reflection that she felt a renewed sense of purpose. As she expressed, “I’m just sitting here by myself because everybody else is at the house, doing all the remediations and everything, and it’s just me, sitting here. And I thought, ‘You need to go back to work.’ And I did.”
Nicks also drew inspiration from a memorable encounter with the late Prince, who once told her, “You always bring me a gift, you never bring me you.” This poignant exchange resonated with Nicks and encouraged her to delve deeper into her own personal stories and experiences. She revealed that the new album will feature seven “autobiographical” songs, each telling a real story from her past, particularly focusing on the memories of the remarkable men she has encountered in her life.
Fans of Stevie Nicks are eagerly anticipating this new album, especially considering that her last album of original material, “In Your Dreams,” was released back in 2011. Following that, she treated fans to “24 Karat Gold: Songs From the Vault,” which showcased reworked versions of older songs and demos from various points in her career. Now, with her latest project in the works, Nicks is sure to captivate audiences once again with her timeless voice and compelling songwriting.
Throughout her illustrious career, Stevie Nicks has not only been a key figure in Fleetwood Mac but has also forged a successful solo career. Her solo albums have only added to her legendary status in the music industry, establishing her as a powerful and influential artist in her own right. As fans eagerly await the release of Nicks’ upcoming album, they can rest assured that it will be a true reflection of her artistry and storytelling prowess, capturing the essence of the iconic singer-songwriter that is Stevie Nicks.
