Early Life and Career Beginnings

Stephanie Lynn Nicks, better known as Stevie Nicks, was born in Phoenix, Arizona, on May 26, 1948. Her father, Jess Nicks, was the president of Greyhound, and as a result, the family moved around the country fairly often. Her nickname "Stevie" came as a result of her pronouncing her name as "tee-dee" when she was a toddler. She began singing at a young age when her grandfather taught her to sing duets with him. At age 16, Nicks received a Goya guitar and began writing her own songs. While a student at Menlo-Atherton High School in Atherton, California, Nicks metLindsey Buckingham, her future musical and romantic partner. Buckingham invited her to join his psychedelic rock band Fritz, and the band enjoyed minor success as the opening act for artists likeJimi HendrixandJanis Joplinduring the late 1960s. Both Nicks and Buckingham attended San Jose State University, but eventually, she dropped out of college to pursue her musical career full-time.

Career

After Fritz disbanded in 1972, Nicks continued to work with Buckingham on new musical projects, and they managed to secure a record deal and release an album as a duo, "Buckingham Nicks," in 1973.

Fleetwood Mac's tenth album (the first featuring Nicks and Buckingham), "Fleetwood Mac," was released in July 1975. Their next album, "Rumours" (1977), was the best-selling album of the year and reported sales of over 40 million copies worldwide. It remained in the No. 1 spot on the American albums chart for 31 weeks and reached the top spot in various other countries as well. It also won Album of the Year in 1978 and produced four U.S. Top 10 singles. Other albums she released with Fleetwood Mac include "Tusk" (1979), "Mirage" (1982), "Tango in the Night" (1987), "Behind the Mask" (1990), and "Say You Will" (2003).
