Indefinitely
In an interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, band member Emily Strayer revealed about the new single: “It was the first song we wrote with Jack Antonoff.”
And further: “At the time we thought we were working with a lot of different people and different producers and then we thought he had to produce it and that had to be the sound for the album because it was just that it was us knocked out and … it was just an incredibly good song to announce the record. ”
The band, complete with Natalie Maines and Martie Maguire, released a video for the song, directed by Seanne Farmer, about the strength of women who have made their way through the decades.
The Dixie Chicks are best known for their hits ‘There’s Your Trouble’ and ‘Wide Open Spaces’ and have won a total of 13 Grammy Awards over the years.
