Stevie Nicks is gearing up to captivate audiences at London’s Hyde Park on July 12th as part of the prestigious British Summer Time concert series. This eagerly anticipated event will see Nicks pay homage to two pivotal figures in her life with poignant musical tributes.
First and foremost, Nicks will honor Tom Petty, her collaborator and friend, whose passing in 2017 deeply impacted her. Their iconic duet “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around,” a timeless hit from 1981, will resonate once more under the open skies of Hyde Park.
In addition to commemorating Petty, Nicks plans a heartfelt tribute to her dear friend and former Fleetwood Mac bandmate Christine McVie, who passed away in 2022. Reports indicate that Nicks will accompany her performance of “Landslide” with a touching slideshow capturing cherished moments shared with McVie, reflecting their enduring bond and musical legacy.
The evening promises to be a star-studded affair, with a lineup of special guests joining Nicks on stage. The roster includes notable artists like Brandi Carlile, Anna Calvi, Paris Paloma, Baby Queen, Nina Nesbitt, Siobhan Winifred, Catty, Talia Rae, Stevie Bill, and Nina Versyp, each adding their own flair and talent to the event.
Currently on her Live in Concert Tour across the U.K. and Europe, Nicks recently faced a setback due to a leg injury that required minor surgery. Despite this, fans eagerly await the rescheduled dates, holding onto their tickets in anticipation of Nicks’ triumphant return to the stage.
