“We are shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of Laura Lynch, a founding member of The Chicks,” Emily Strayer, Martie Maguire, and Natalie Maines wrote in their tribute to Lynch.

“We hold a special place in our hearts for the time we spent playing music, laughing and traveling together. Laura was a bright light…her infectious energy and humor gave a spark to the early days of our band”

“Laura had a gift for design, a love of all things Texas and was instrumental in the early success of the band. Her undeniable talents helped propel us beyond busking on street corners to stages all across Texas and the mid-West”

Lynch, along with Robin Lynn Macy and sisters Martie and Emily Erwin (now Maguire and Strayer), co-founded the Dixie Chicks in 1989 with Lynch serving as the band’s upright bassist and co-lead vocalist.

The band performed country and bluegrass music at various festivals and venues. They recorded three albums together before Lynch left and was replaced by Natalie Maines, creating the current trio of Maines, Maguire, and Strayer.

The band’s commercial success came in 1998 with their Wide Open Spaces album. The band was renamed to ‘The Chicks’ in June 2020. The decision to drop “Dixie” followed criticism that the word had connotations to American slavery.
