Stevie Nicks adds solo Northern California show after canceling tour with Billy Joel
It looks like Stevie Nicks will be performing in Northern California this year after all.
The former Fleetwood Mac singer has extended her summer 2025 tour and is now scheduled for a concert at Sacramento's Golden 1 Center on Oct. 4, the same night that she was meant to play the now canceled show at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara with Billy Joel.
Compensating for those canceled dates, Nicks added a total of eight new concerts, including performances at Brooklyn's Barclays Center (Aug. 8), Portland's MODA Center (Oct. 1) and Harftord's PeoplesBank Arena (Oct. 25).
Ticket presales for all of Nicks' newly announced shows start at 10 a.m. Wednesday, June 18. The general sale begins at 10 a.m. Friday, June 20.
Nicks revealed that she's working on a new solo project inspired by her experiences with various men in her life during the Pollstar Awards in April.
'I'm not pulling any punches for probably the first time in my life. They are not airy-fairy songs,' she said about the album during the event at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles. 'They're real stories of memories of mine of fantastic men.'
A release date has yet to be announced for the untitled project.
The singer also revealed during an interview with GQ that she has been working on music with Los Angeles pop-rock trio Haim, though she never confirmed if it's for her forthcoming album.
It is unclear whether Nicks plans to perform any new material on her tour.
Nicks had been touring with Joel since 2023, before the 'Piano Man' singer's recent diagnosis prompted him to pull out of a total of 17 dates, including shows with Rock & Roll Hall of Famers Sting and Rod Stewart.
Joel's team said that his condition, which is caused by excess cerebrospinal fluid, was worsening with live performances and leading to various hearing, vision and balance problems.
'Under his doctor's instructions, Billy is undergoing specific physical therapy and has been advised to refrain from performing during this recovery period,' read a statement shared to his Instagram
