Fleetwood Mac Backup Singers?
I hope this isn't a dumb question
When did they start touring with backup vocalists? Was The Dance the beginning of this? Have they discussed why they started to tour with them at all? Thanks! |

Wasn't it '87?

Yeah - per FM Legacy the TITN tour was the first with backup singers:
Sharon Celani: Backup Singer Lori Perry-Nicks: Backup Singer Elisecia Wright: Backup Singer

I just looked, and you are right! They first show up during Everywhere, about six minutes in.
I'm wondering what the reasoning is/how that conversation went |

That'll be Stevie's doing. Especially after Lindsey walked, she got her way a hell of a lot more. Especially as Sharon and Lori were her solo back up singers.
Although, I think the amount of production on TITN with the different layers and vocal effects would've meant that more musicians and singers would need to be on stage to recreate that |

I can see needing the guitarist more than the backup singers.

So was Elisecia Wright; she was a hold over from the RAL tour.

I don't mind the extra help, but you don't need more "back-up" players than actual members. Max of 4 back-ups - guitar, keyboard, and two vocalists with Mick, John, Stevie, and Lindsey should be fine. Part of the problem since Christine's departure is replacing her keyboard parts. Fleetwood Mac has to have a keyboard player and three vocalists.
I run sound at my church. We have three musicians...lead singer/keyboard, her husband on drums/vocals, and another background singer. That's it. Not perfect but we get through five songs every Sunday morning real well! Last edited by MacShadowsBall; 02-22-2013 at 11:20 PM.. |
