The Chicks are gearing up for a 20th anniversary tour of Taking the Long Way in a sweeping North American run this fall. The trio will kick off the jaunt on September 30 at Detroit’s Fox Theatre, before traveling the country’s theaters and concert halls through November. Check out the itinerary below.

Natalie Maines, Martie Maguire, and Emily Strayer have been touring on and off since their 2020 return from a 13-year hiatus. They released a comeback album, Gaslighter, that year, shortly before dropping the “Dixie” from their name.

Taking the Long Way was the Chicks’ first album following the group’s public criticism of then President George W. Bush, and the severe backlash that ensued. Taking went on to win Album of the Year at the 2007 Grammy Awards, while the LP’s lead single "Not Ready to Make Nice" took home Record and Song of the Year.
