Stevie Nicks is back with new music – her latest single Show Them the Way is set to drop on October 9th!
The Fleetwood Mac star confirmed her latest release during an interview with the Los Angeles Times, revealing her first solo release since 2014 album 24 Karat Gold: Songs from the Vault was born out of a dream she had in the run-up to the 2008 presidential election.
According to Nicks, she was invited to perform at a political benefit for icons of history in her vision, and Martin Luther King, Jr. led her by the arm into a ballroom where John F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy and John Lewis were seated, awaiting her.
The dream was so vivid that she wrote a poem based on her recollection, titled The Kennedy’s, which she shared online back in January, 2009.
In addition to the new track, which will be accompanied by a Cameron Crowe-directed music video, she’s also working on a new solo album and will spend the remainder of the pandemic turning the poetry from her journals into lyrics, per the LA Times.
Earlier this year, Eurythmics star Dave Stewart, who collaborated with Nicks on 24 Karat Gold and previous album In Your Dreams, confirmed he was working on tracks with the singer.
It’s the latest project for the star, who will also hit cinema screens later this month with her 24 Karat Gold: The Concert movie. Check out her performance of Gypsy here.
The release will be accompanied by a live album, set to drop at the end of October.
