Buckingham Nicks

Buckingham Nicks (or, as it's sometimes written, Buckingham/nicks) were a short-lived duo comprised of guitarist/singer Lindsey Buckingham (b. Palo Alto, CA, Oct. 3, 1948) and singer Stevie Nicks (b. Phoenix, AZ, May 26, 1948). Buckingham and Nicks had met at Menlo Atherton High School in Atherton, CA, where Nicks' family had moved after a time living in Los Angeles. Nicks, who had written poetry since childhood, began composing songs at 16, the year she had joined her first band, the Changing Times, whereas Buckingham had been interested in rock & roll -- especially the guitar-based sounds of artists such as Eddie Cochran, The Everly Brothers, and Buddy Holly -- since childhood, and had picked up his first instrument amid his youthful infatuation with The Kingston Trio.
