EP 6: Stevie Nicks & Fleetwood Mac - The Story of the Mystical Enchantress

Together we take a look at the incredible life journey of the enchanting, mystical and courageous Stevie Nicks. From her early days raised in Pheonix, Arizona as she was taken under the wing of her beloved grandfather to her first encounter with Lindsay Buckingham before performing together in the Fritz Rabyne Memorial Band and as a duo named Buckingham Nicks. Stevie would slave away working around 3 jobs at once before the pair were scouted by Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac. From there Stevie would prove all the doubters wrong with her incredible live performances, unique but strong vocals and her heartfelt songwriting ability that cast a spell on fans from all over the world. 

Despite losing her way at times she would become an inspiring female figure in Rock n Roll as she attempted to make it in a man's world, she battled relationship drama's, affairs, scandals and drug addiction, as well as striking out as a solo artist and would eventually earn her rightful place as the only woman in history to make the Rock N Roll hall of fame twice, opening the door for other female musicians to follow in her footsteps. Sit back and enjoy as this is one hell of an inspiring and incredible story.

We take a look at the meaning behind a large number of Stevie's most memorable songs and ones you may not know too much about including Dreams, Landslide, Stand Back, Sara, Rhiannon, Gypsy, Edge of Seventeen, Leather and Lace, Has Anyone Ever Written a Song For You, Gold Dust Woman, Silver Springs and many more.

Thanks for tuning in and enjoy.
