Fleetwood Mac singer's landscaper dishes on band's potential reunion
Michael Gambino, president of the Simi Valley-based company Gambino Landscape Lighting, shared a photo with the former Fleetwood Mac guitarist last week with a special update.
'He's got a new album coming out in the spring of next year along with a documentary about Fleetwood Mac,' Gambino wrote on May 12, noting that he spoke with the musician, who he claims is a longtime client, for around 30 minutes.
He added that founding Fleetwood Mac member Stevie Nicks is also a client and 'asked if there was a possibility that they would ever perform together again.'
Buckingham's response, Gambino said: 'that all depends upon Stevie.'
It has been four years since Buckingham released a solo album, though the singer has kept himself immersed in the world of music. He was photographed in March in the studio with Mick Fleetwood, working on his former bandmate's upcoming solo album. More recently, he launched a YouTube reaction series with his daughter Leelee, in which they screen modern music videos together.
The Fleetwood Mac documentary Gambino is referring to is likely the same feature-length project that was picked up by Apple Original Films last film will be directed by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Frank Marshall and feature new exclusive interviews, unseen archival footage and tributes to Christine McVie, who died in 2022.
A release date for the film has not been announced.
Following McVie's death, Nicks and Fleetwood both declared that the band was officially over. Nicks particularly noted that her animosity toward Buckingham, who she attended Menlo-Atherton High School with and dated in the 1970s, would also get in the way.
Despite Fleetwood's wish for the two to reconcile, Nicks told Rolling Stone that she has already given Buckingham 'more than 300 million chances.' She also shared that she could only tolerate 'three minutes' of chatting with him during McVie's memorial.
Gambino's post seems to confirm that any Fleetwood Mac reunion decisions truly rests with Nicks, who is currently occupied with her next solo project, which she announced last month.
