After the eventual departure of key members Danny Kirwan and Bob Welch - and the addition of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks - McVie suddenly became one of the three hottest songwriters of the 1970’s. McVie, along with former husband John McVie and Mick Fleetwood, steered the group through a diverse early-’70s period following the absence of the group’s co-founding guitarists Peter Green and Jeremy Spencer. In 2014 McVie thrilled the rock world when she returned to the band following a 16-year hiatus. In October, Fleetwood Mac - with Heartbreakers guitarist/songwriter/producer Mike Campbell stepping in to cover lead guitar duties and Crowded House frontman Neil Finn supplying rhythm guitar and vocals - will play over 50 arena dates later this year and in early-2019. Happy Birthday to Fleetwood Mac songwriter-keyboardist Christine McVie!!! Last year, McVie and now-ousted Mac bandmate Lindsey Buckingham released their debut album as a duo, Lindsey Buckingham / Christine McVie, which peaked at Number 17 on the Billboard 200 and formed the basis of a their first joint tour together.
