The Chicks Tour / 2023 World Tour was the sixth headlining concert tour from American country music trio The Chicks and the first since their name change in June 2020. It began on June 14, 2022, in Maryland Heights, Missouri and initially concluded in Austin, Texas. Following this, the group played their first ever Las Vegas residency, The Chicks: Six Nights in Vegas in May 2023, at the Zappos Theater. The 2023 portion of the tour began on June 20, 2023, in Oslo, Norway and finished on October 30, 2023, in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Background

The first leg of the tour was announced on February 28, 2022.[1] In February 2023, The Chicks announced the second leg of the tour, rebranded as The Chicks World Tour 2023.[2] Australian and New Zealand dates were announced on April 30, 2023.[3][4]

Show synopsis

The show begins with music from female bands playing across the venue, then The Chicks emerge from the back of the stage. They start off with their 1999 single, "Sin Wagon". The graphics on the video boards are used throughout the show. They depict from featuring the five Supreme Court judges who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, protests, marches, etc. They play mostly their past hits along with a few from their 2020 album Gaslighter. The show ends with "Goodbye Earl".[5]

Natalie Maines' son, Slade and Martie Maguire's daughter, Eva are members of their backing band.[6]

Critical reception

Sorena Dadgar of CLTure attended the Raleigh show and said, "The Chicks's return to the limelight felt seamless; songs from the group's latest album drew just as much of a response as their most popular albums Fly and Wide Open Spaces from the late '90s."[5] SFGATE's Gabe Lehman who attend the Mountain View show praised lead singer Natalie Maines' (who had been a brief vocal rest) vocals. He said, "Maines is like a veteran pitcher who can no longer throw 100 mph for an entire game but still can bring the heat for a high-leverage strikeout."[6] The Guardian's Betsy Reed gave the Cardiff show four out of five stars. Reed wrote, "Maines sells each kiss-off with glee, throwing up middle fingers and threatening to stomp a hole in the stage, while Julianna Calm Down is a marvel of melody and lyrical sleight of hand carried off with cut-glass interplay."[7] Writing for The Mancunion, Jay Darcy who went to Manchester show said, "The Chicks are all middle-aged mothers now but they have not lost their edge; they're three of the coolest moms out there. They're multi-instrumentalist masters of country, with gorgeous voices and pretty faces to match."[8]
