Two Of The Dixie Chicks Start New Band Called Court Yard Hounds

If you're a fan of the Dixie Chicks, this news will be of interest to you. Rolling Stone Magazine is reporting that Emily Robison and Martie Maguire of the Dixie Chicks have recorded an album under the name Court Yard Hounds. The band name is a reference to the novel, City of Thieves. Recorded largely at Maguire's home studio in Austin, Texas, the album is scheduled for May and will feature Robison on lead vocals for the first time, with an appearance from the Wallflowers' Jakob Dylan. Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines will not appear on the album, but Robison and Maguire emphasized to Rolling Stone that the Chicks have not formally parted ways.
