Christine McVie

Christine McVie was, in my honest opinion, the secret heartbeat of Fleetwood Mac — the one who could anchor a room with a single piano chord and then level you with a melody you'd hum for thirty years. She came up through the British blues scene with Chicken Shack before officially joining the Mac in 1970, and from there she just kept delivering: "Songbird," "Little Lies," "Everywhere," "Oh Daddy" — a songwriting catalog that sounds effortless but is actually the product of someone who really understood how emotion sits inside a groove. The fact that she stepped away from the band in 1998 and then came back in 2014 and still sounded completely at home says everything about her class. Losing her in November 2022 hit harder than I expected, but the music she left behind makes it feel like she never fully left.
