Is 'Buckingham Nicks' Finally Returning to Complete the Fleetwood Mac Saga? What We Know So Far

Published 07/22/2025, 9:45 PM EDT

In an age where every moment is spoon-fed in bite-sized pixels, art sometimes wears a borrowed coat, tailored just for fleeting approval. But one look at yesteryear’s artists and it reveals that spinning one's own sonic tales at their own unhurried, confident, and fearless tempo, weaves genuine gold that sifts itself from the sand by the sea of time. Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham wear this same boldness today, like old storytellers near a bonfire, more worried about the tale than the crowd’s applause.

When mystery meets melody, old flames flicker in familiar rhythms, and the past awakens for yet another encore.

News spread faster than light as fans were sweetly awakened to a billboard at Sunset Boulevard, featuring Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham’s famed 1973 album cover, coupled with the date September 19, 2025. This billboard, alongside cryptic online lyrics shared over socials on July 17 by the duo, confirmed the long-awaited reissue of their legendary self-titled record. Fifty-two years after its original debut and years after fractured friendships, the 'Buckingham Nicks' sonic-child sat plastered overhead, poised and clothed as their only collaboration in history. 

The original 'Buckingham Nicks' album was the outcome of late-night creative marathons in shabby studios and even shabbier apartments. Released in 1973, it was born from Nicks and Buckingham's blood and sweat, preceding even their Fleetwood Mac act, only to be hooked onto the lower-most rungs of commercial performance. Their partnership danced between heartbreak and harmony, each track polished with youthful sweat, ambition, and pure artistic gamble.

Legacy is a vinyl that never skips, but sometimes the needle returns to play the deepest grooves as 'Buckingham Nicks' can be tightening the weave of rock’s timeless record. 

Rekindling a rock romance

Before their stardom, Stevie Buckingham and Lindsey Nicks were a duo with battered dreams and a battered tape machine, leaving behind a sound that would foretell the tidal wave of '70s pop-rock drama. They gambled their way through creativity with days of Nicks working odd jobs and Buckingham staying home, perfecting his chords on the guitar. Their lone album, whimsical and haunting, caught the ear of Mick Fleetwood, who, enchanted by 'Frozen Love', invited them to jump aboard the Fleetwood Mac ship. That ripple changed the course of pop music, now with fans like pop sensation Taylor Swift, ushering in a new era fueled by their creative tempest.
