Why Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham Are Sparking Fleetwood Mac Reunion Rumors
Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham are bringing the band back together—sort of.
The bandmates, who performed as Buckingham Nicks before joining Fleetwood Mac in 1974, announced Aug. 13 that they will be releasing a remastered version of their 1973 eponymous album this September.
“Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks’ elusive 1973 studio album arrives September 19,” a description included in the YouTube video for their single, “Don’t Let Me Down Again,” read, “with newly remastered sound for CD and digital debut.”
Fans began speculating that a project from the two was in the works in July after Stevie, 77, and Lindsey, 75, shared coordinated posts on social media featuring lyrics from “Frozen Love,” a song featured on their album.
Minutes after Stevie shared the handwritten lyrics “And if you go forward” on her Instagram page, Lindsey posted the rest of the line, “I’ll meet you there,” in what appeared to be his own handwriting.
Along with the cryptic posts, fellow band member Mick Fleetwood shared his own musings on the song as he reflected on the pair’s one-of-a-kind musical pairing.
“The marriage of Stevie and Lindsey, the magic of coming into Fleetwood Mac when they did, it’s all in the song,” he said in a video shared on Instagram at the time. “It was magic then, magic now. What a thrill.”
