Default 'Dixie Chicks' Officially Change The Band's Name To 'The Chicks'

'Dixie Chicks' Officially Change The Band's Name To 'The Chicks'


June 25, 2020

The 'Dixie Chicks' have officially changed the name of their band to 'The Chicks' after mounting pressure to drop the word 'Dixie' due to its connection to racism in the old south.

The iconic country group including Natalie Maines, Emily Strayer, and Martie Maguire -- are now simply calling themselves 'The Chicks.'

The announcement coincided with the band's website also being changed to 'TheChicks.com.' On the website, the band offered this as their statement to the change, "We want to meet this moment."

Too bad the Dixie Chicks caved in to that nonsense like many others. I kind of liked them when they criticized Bush the Moron from Texas for the 2003 Iraq invasion. Naturally all the flag-waving patriotards got on their case about that back then.

I didn't know they were even still a group--haven't heard anything from them in years.

Isn’t “chicks” considered sexist?

Sadly southern rock music is dying out and I don't know to prevent this...

I mean, I still like Lynyrd Skynyrd's new albums, but I wish they still had the guts to have the confederate flag... just another brick in the wall...
