When reached by Pitchfork, a representative for the Chicks shared the following statement from the band:
On June 17, writer Jeremy Helligar penned an op-ed for Variety that questioned the country trio’s band name. (The term “Dixie,” long associated with the South and Southern culture, was originally derived from the Mason-Dixon line.) Helligar noted the recent controversy surrounding Lady Antebellum’s name change to Lady A had netted that band a good amount of press attention before writing, “The Dixie Chicks don’t need to change their name to get that kind of publicity, but their silence has been deafening. This is a discussion we need to have, and they should be a part of it.”
