Dixie Chicks to Hit Ottawa in April 2017

Posted on the 07 November 2016 by Hendrik Pape @soundcheckblg

Innovators, renegades, villains, mothers, influencers and music superstars, Dixie Chicks have announced a show at Richcraft Live at Canadian Tire Centre as part of their DCX MMXVII World Tour. The multi-Grammy Award winning and multi-platinum selling band kicked off their highly anticipated North American tour in June 2016 and Dixie Chicks have visited over 40 cities throughout the U.S. and Canada during the past few months.

Since their first album, the music of the Dixie Chicks have stirred emotions in fans all over the world, making them one of the biggest and most influential bands of our time. Not just "big for a country band" or "big for a female band," the Dixie Chicks are a multi-platinum selling act in North America, Europe and Australia. They are one of a handful of acts with multiple albums achieving diamond status (sales over 10 million copies) - both Wide Open Spaces (1998) and Fly (1999) hit that stratospheric landmark - and through the years they have sold over 30 million albums worldwide and won thirteen Grammy Awards. Their on-stage reputation has helped them sell over $100 million worth of concert tickets while outspoken songs like Goodbye, Earl and Not Ready To Make Nice made it clear that this power trio played by nobody's rules. The Dixie Chicks have grown from a band into a cultural force becoming the biggest selling female band of all time in the United States.

Field Service Tech by day, Live Music Nut by night! My family and I call the Thousand Islands region of Ontario home. I'm a blogger, social media geek, tech, and live music fanatic. I founded Sound Check Entertainment in 2010 to help promote festivals and emerging artists from across Canada and the world! I now act as festivals liaison, manage media relations and, of course, cover events in the National Capital region. I'm also a diehard Habs fan but Sens fans fear not; as long as they aren't playing against my Habs I cheer just as loud for the Sens.
