Olivia Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields may turn into a sobbing fest in August if she performs “Landslide” with Stevie Nicks. The superstar teased as much during an interview on Good Morning America with Diane Sawyer, who said that seeing the two artists perform the song would be a dream. “We might make that happen for you, Diane,” Rodrigo responded. “We’ll see. Can’t give too much away.”
It would be a once-in-a-lifetime moment to see the rock legend sing about getting older alongside one of the most promising artists of the new generation. In her October 2023 Rolling Stone cover story, Rodrigo shared that she’s thought about “Landslide” in the past: She was asked if she imagined playing breakout hit “Driver’s License” decades into her career. “I was thinking about that the other day … I saw Stevie Nicks singing ‘Landslide’ to this huge stadium of people. Not that ‘Drivers License’ is ‘Landslide,’ by any means,” she said, adding, “But I was like, ‘Damn.’ That heartbreak that you feel when you’re young, thinking about singing that song when I’m Stevie Nicks’ age … it’s really powerful.”
During her GMA appearance, Rodrigo shared more details about Daisy Chain Fields and how it’s Lilith Fair-for-the-new-age. “Lilith Fair was a huge inspiration in me starting this festival,” she told Sawyer. “The first person that I called when I decided that I wanted to do this festival was Sarah McLachlan. She’s a total trailblazer and an incredible artist and a friend.”
The festival, set for Aug. 29 in Irvine, California, will feature an all-star, all-women lineup just like its Nineties inspiration. Bikini Kill, Chappell Roan, Doechii, Garbage, Die Spitz, Eli, KATSEYE, Mitski, Not for Radio, Quiet Light, Rachel Chinouriri, Santigold, and the Breeders are all part of the bill, while Nicks, Karen O, and McLachlan are listed as special guests. “I’m so excited about the lineup,” Rodrigo said. Net proceeds for the festival will be donated to women- and girls-focused nonprofit organizations and “all of the incredible artists who run the bill are doing it for free for charity,” the superstar said, noting that the fact “is a real testament to their hearts as well as their talent.”
