In this revealing portrait of keyboardist, lyricist, and vocalist Christine Mcvie of Fleetwood Mac, readers will get an exclusive glimpse of the band’s “mother figure”.

Christine McVie–born Christine Perfect–was the quintessentially English rock star, as both the backbone and the beating heart of Fleetwood Mac. She wrote and performed many of their greatest hits, and was dubbed ‘the mother’ of the band. It was Christine who contained the flock, regrouped them when they went AWOL, and always got them back on track. And yet, as the “engine” of the band during their Rumours era–an album which charted the romantic disintegration within the band–Christine’s personal life was every bit as tempestuous as those of her bandmates.

Told by an author who herself was friends with Christine, and with new contributions from those who knew her best, Songbird offers a true insider’s view and psychological insight into Christine as a both a woman and a musician––the ultimate picture of a rock legend and a national treasure.
