The Chicks are celebrating the 20th anniversary of their pioneering 2006 album, Taking the Long Way, with the chart-topping trio - consisting of Natalie Maines, Martie Maguire and Emily Strayer - embarking on a sprawling run of shows this year.
After unveiling the initial series of shows, The Chicks have added three new dates in Philadelphia, Boston and Hollywood. The official Artist Pre-Sale for these extra dates starts on Tuesday, August 11th at 10am EDT. To gain access to the Artist Pre-Sale for these new shows, you must be signed up via The Chicks’ official website, and you should then be sent a special code ahead of the Pre-Sale starting.
If you don't manage to secure tickets through the Artist Pre-Sale, don't fret, because there is still the Live Nation Pre-Sale, which kicks off on Wednesday, August 12th at 10am EDT. To gain access to this, you need to sign up to Live Nation's free All Access program HERE. Then, as long as you're logged into your Live Nation account, you'll be able to enter the official Live Nation Pre-Sale on Wednesday.
Then, on Thursday, August 13th at 10am EDT, the General Sale will start HERE, giving fans another shot at securing tickets to The Chicks’ newly announced trio of shows this year.

In tandem with the announcement of these additional dates, The Chicks have also confirmed they'll be releasing a special anniversary edition of Taking the Long Way on October 2nd.
That record remains one of the most revered projects in the country canon, with Taking the Long Way producing now-legendary hits such as ‘Not Ready to Make Nice’ and ‘Lullaby’.
We can't wait to sing along to some of The Chicks’ iconic country anthems, such as ‘There's Your Trouble’, ‘Goodbye Earl’, ‘Landslide’, ‘Wide Open Spaces’ and ‘Cowboy Take Me Away’.
