Christine Mcvie
Christine Anne Perfect (born 12 July 1943), known professionally as Christine McVie following her marriage to John McVie, is an English singer, songwriter and keyboardist, best known as one of the three lead vocalists and the keyboardist of Fleetwood Mac. She joined the band in 1970. She has also released three solo albums. McVie is known for her smoky, contralto vocals and her direct but poignant lyrics, which concentrated on love and relationships. AllMusic describes her as an "Unabashedly easy-on-the-ears singer/songwriter, and the prime mover behind some of Fleetwood Mac's biggest hits." Eight of her songs appeared on Fleetwood Mac's 1988 Greatest Hits album. In 1998 McVie was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Fleetwood Mac and received the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music. The same year, after almost 30 years with the band, she opted to leave and lived in semi-retirement for nearly 15 years. McVie released one solo album in 2004. In September 2013, McVie appeared on stage with Fleetwood Mac at London's O2 Arena. She rejoined the band in October 2014, ready for Fleetwood Mac's On with the Show tour. In 2014 she received the Ivor Novello Award for Lifetime Achievement from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors.

Women’s History Month Tribute: Fleetwood Mac’s Christine McVie

When I was in 7th grade, Christine McVie was like a friend, probably because I had so few. It was one of those cruel middle school mysteries: I left 6th grade popular, the first girl in class to wear eyeliner, but when I returned from summer vacation, everything had changed. As I learned of loneliness, music took on a new role. My mother must have given me the CD—Rumours with a “u”—the spelling of it alone excited me. I used to play it every morning before school, while my cat Mr. Moon walked between my legs. A late bloomer, my hands were still childlike; I can see them in front of me now, red nail polish chipped at the edges, pulling the CD out of the sleeve and placing it in my parent’s old boombox. At first, I listened to Fleetwood Mac because no one else in my class did and, while I also secretly knew the words to the entire Christina Aguilera album, I preferred the feeling of rejecting whatever it was that everyone else accepted. But even then, I knew the band was magic.

Flashback: Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie Perform ‘Tusk’ in 2017

The endless soap opera that is Fleetwood Mac took a turn earlier this week when Mick Fleetwood told Rolling Stone that he’s back on speaking terms with Lindsey Buckingham and wants to make music with him again. “It doesn’t have to be in Fleetwood Mac,” he said. “And Fleetwood Mac is such a strange story. All the players in the play are able to talk and speak for themselves. Somehow, I would love the elements that are not healed to be healed.”

Christine McVie Shares Thoughts On Fleetwood Mac’s Future

A few days ago, Christine McVie said in a BBC Radio 2 interview that she doesn’t know if they would hit the road again. The comment stunned Fleetwood Mac fans. She revealed that if they did go back on tour, “it will be without John [McVie] and without Stevie [Nicks], I think” especially since John “hasn’t got the heart for it anymore”. And she also admitted that she’s “getting a bit too old for it now, especially having had a year off. I don’t know if I can get myself back into it again.”

Christine McVie Questions Fleetwood Mac’s Future Tour Plans

Christine McVie has weighed in on Fleetwood Mac‘s future touring plans and, based on her estimable opinion, it’s hard to imagine that its current core members will do so again. In an interview that aired on BBC Radio 2, the singer-songwriter-keyboardist said that she didn’t think she, Stevie Nicks, or John McVie would tour with the band. For those keeping score, that leaves just Mick Fleetwood, 73, who, she says, “would do it in a lightning strike.”
