LADY ANTEBELLUM AND DIXIE CHICKS REBRAND

Because of the degree of concern brought about by the Black Lives Matter protests that have been going on, musical icons Lady Antebellum and Dixie Chicks have decided to change their names. Since their band name was associated with a part of history that included slavery, Lady Antebellum have now dropped the “antebellum” in their name and are now referred to as just “Lady A.” This was the nickname that their fans have given them over the years.

Two weeks later, The Dixie Chicks followed suit and dropped the “Dixie” in their name as well so as not to be associated with the Confederate-era South. They released March March, a new song to announce their new name, “The Chicks”. It advocated for telling the public to use their votes wisely. With that said, it’s nice to see many of our favorite stars in the industry also taking a stand when it comes to making the world a better place for everyone to live in.
