0 24



Laura Lynch, the original member of the country music band, the Dixie Chicks, passed away in a fatal car accident, the authorities said. She was 65 years old. Lynch, who lived in Fort Worth, was driving on Route 62 near Cornudas, Texas, when a pick-up truck from the opposite direction hit her vehicle head-on, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety. Lynch died on the spot.

The country singer formed the Dixie Chicks, later renamed as the Chicks, in Dallas in 1988 with Robin Lynn Macy, and sisters Emily Strayer and Martie Maguire. The band’s first two albums, Thank Heavens for Dale Evans (1990) and Little Ol’ Cowgirl (1992), featured the original quartet. Macy left the band in 1992. In 1993, the band performed at an inaugural ball for then-President Bill Clinton. In 1995, Lynch was let go from the group and replaced by Natalie Maines.

Reacting to the news of her death, the current band members said in a post on Instagram that they were “shocked and saddened”. The post read, “We hold a special place in our hearts for the time we spent playing music, laughing and travelling together. Laura was a bright light… Her infectious energy and humour gave a spark to the early days of our band.”
