Making their Australian debut to huge acclaim in 1999, this year marks THE CHICKS’ fifth visit to our shores.
Michael Chugg, Executive Chairman Chugg Entertainment said, “Ever since I heard a demo in the late ’90s and did their first tour in November 1999, The Chicks have been a huge part of my life. Watching them become live icons of music has been an amazing journey, and their upcoming tour will go up another level again.”
With the release of their first studio album in fourteen years, 2020’s Gaslighter, THE CHICKS delivered their most anticipated yet, impressing critics globally, co-produced by Jack Antonoff and with collaborators including the likes of Julia Michaels, Justin Tranter and more. Pitchfork called it “a genuinely compelling new take on the punchy country sound that’s always made them stand out”, while Vulture wrote, “Gaslighter is as careful in its blending of country instrumentation and delicate pop flourishes as it is in its balance of righteous indignation and scandalous receipts … a pop-country killer”.
Earning universal recognition as the biggest-selling US female band of all time, THE CHICKS have sold more than 30.5 million albums and are among an elite group of artists and the only female group to achieve multiple Diamond-selling releases; reaching the stratospheric landmark of more than 10 million copies sold, with both Wide Open Spaces (1998) and Fly (1999).
Counting thirteen Grammy Awards, six Billboard Music Awards, four American Music Awards, and numerous Country Music Association Awards among many other accolades, THE CHICKS’ record-breaking 2006 studio album, Taking The Long Way, picked up five Grammy Awards including Album of the Year, Record of the Year and Song of the Year.
Their on-stage reputation has seen THE CHICKS play to hundreds of thousands of fans at some of the world’s most prestigious venues, from London’s O2 Arena to the Hollywood Bowl, LA’s Staples Center to New York’s Madison Square Garden, and outspoken songs like Goodbye, Earl and Not Ready To Make Nice make it clear that this power trio plays by nobody’s rules. Superstars, renegades, innovators, heroes and villains – for more than two decades, THE CHICKS have developed from a band into a phenomenon.

Her latest album Come Get Your Wife was released to rave reviews earlier this year, with Variety calling it a “masterstroke of music-making”.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
