Stevie Nicks in Atlantic City at the Borgata July 15, 2012
Former lead singer for Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Nicks was born in Phoenix, Arizona. When she was 4 years Stevie would sing country and western duets with her grandfather. It all began when started songwriting and performing at Menlo-Atherton High School, where she met her future long-time companion and former lover, Lindsey Buckingham. Lindsey and Stevie signed with Polydor Records, and produced their collaboration, "Buckingham-Nicks". Of copurse, the album flopped, and the two (who were now lovers) were dropped from the label, but not before attracting the attention of Mick Fleetwood, who invited them to join Fleetwood Mac. Two years later, in 1975, Fleetwood Mac's self-titled album topped the charts, headlined by Stevie's "Rhiannon". Success for the band, and for Stevie Nicks, was immediate. The legendary "Rumours" album followed in 1977, at the same time Stevie's relationship with Lindsey came to an end. Stevie's solo career began in 1981 and met with instant success. The stress of maintaining a solo career and remaining with Fleetwood Mac became too much for her, she over indulged and became addicted to cocaine and prescription medication. After undergoing treatment for her addictions, Stevie Nicks in Atlantic City vowed she would never perform publicly again, but was lured out of retirement for Fleetwood Mac's 1997 reunion and continues to perform, write and record. President Bill Clinton had something to do with getting her to sing again! Stevie Nicks in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
