Stevie Nicks Performs 'The Lighthouse' on Kimmel

Stevie Nicks performed her powerful new single, "The Lighthouse," on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, a song she describes as an anthem for women's rights inspired by the 2022 overturning of Roe v. Wade. Nicks wrote the song shortly after this decision, expressing her fears and the urgent need for collective action among women and their allies. She recounted how a news segment deeply affected her, prompting her to write the lyrics in one morning and record the song that same night. Co-produced with Dave Cobb and Sheryl Crow, "The Lighthouse" is Nicks' first new music since 2020 and serves as a rallying cry for future generations. The performance aired on the eve of Election Day, reinforcing its timely message about empowerment and resilience. Nicks has emphasized the importance of this song as potentially the most significant work she has ever created for women's rights.
