It has now been announced that legendary singer, songwriter and storyteller Stevie Nicks was set to perform on July 6 at the OVO Hydro Arena in Glasgow, but the event was postponed due to needing “few days of recovery”. The new Glasgow date is officially Wednesday, July 24.
Scottish singer-songwriter Nina Nesbitt is also joining Stevie Nicks on tour as a special guest, claiming she has been “manifesting this thing since march”.
Stevie Nicks has played a pivotal role in shaping the global music scene and still holds incredible influence today. Best known for her iconic contributions to the rock band Fleetwood Mac, Nicks joined the group in 1975, introducing her distinctive voice, poetic songwriting, and captivating stage presence.
Her impact on Fleetwood Mac’s success during the late 1970s and early 1980s, particularly with the release of the highly acclaimed album Rumours, solidified her as a musical powerhouse. The album sold over 40 million copies worldwide, making it the 5th best-selling album of the 1970s and the 9th best-selling album of all time.
Undoubtedly an icon, Stevie Nicks is synonymous with some of the most well-known songs ever, with lead vocals on Fleetwood Mac tracks like Dreams, Landslide and Rhiannon, and of course incredible success in her solo career with universally recognisable tunes like Edge of Seventeen and Leather and Lace − and we’re hoping to hear some of these when she hits the Manchester stage in July.
Earlier in 2024, Nicks announced that she would headline BST Hyde Park 2024, marking her first UK date in seven years, and is a feat undertaken by undisputed icons like Stevie Wonder and The Rolling Stones, so she’ll fit right in. She will be playing a date in Glasgow on July 24, followed by Manchester on July 16 at Co-op Live one of only three opportunities to see Stevie Nicks in the UK this year.
