Dixie Chicks – Gaslighter (mp3 download)
Dixie Chicks have released the title track to their forthcoming album Gaslighter. Available for download and streaming, one of the singers from the trio, Natalie Maines teased a clip of the song on Instagram.
According to Maines, the Dixie Chicks had intended for their next album to be something simple, such as a covers album, simply to fulfill their deal with Sony. However, her divorce from her husband, actor Adrian Pasdar, inspired her to start songwriting again.
“When I started getting a divorce, I had a lot to say, so that kind of sparked me being ready [to make new music],” says Maines. “Songwriting is really hard for me, and I think, for many years, I didn’t want to analyze my life or my relationship. I was just in it and dedicated and devoted … I just was not ready to open up like that.
“Our last album was the most personal and autobiographical we’d ever been,” she adds, “and then this one is, like, 10 times that.”
They were last heard contributing backup vocals to Taylor Swift’s “Soon You’ll Get Better” last year. In tandem with their recent announcement, the trio launched a “Dixie Chicks 2020” website, where fans can sign up for updates ahead of the album’s release.
