Life and career [edit]
1949–1971: Early years [edit]
Lindsey Adams Buckingham was built-in on October three, 1949, in Palo Alto, California, to Rutheda (née Elliott) and Morris Buckingham.[three] [iv] [5] [6] He had 2 older brothers, Jeffrey and Gregory. Growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area customs of Atherton, he attended Menlo-Atherton High School where Buckingham and his brothers were encouraged to swim competitively. Though Buckingham dropped out of athletics to pursue music, his brother Gregory went on to win a silvery medal at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City. Buckingham attended San José State University, but did non graduate.
Buckingham's first forays into guitar playing took place on a toy Mickey Mouse guitar, playing along to his brother Jeff's all-encompassing collection of 45s. Noticing his talent, Buckingham's parents bought their son a $35 Harmony guitar.[vii]
Buckingham never took guitar lessons and does non read music.[8] By age 13, he became interested in folk music and, influenced past banjo methods, proficient the energetic style of the Kingston Trio. From 1966 to 1971, Buckingham performed psychedelic and folk rock with the loftier schoolhouse rock band originally named The Fritz Rabyne Memorial Ring equally a bassist and vocalist.[9] [10] [7] The band regrouped in 1967 due to band member changes and shortened their name to Fritz.[11] Buckingham invited friend Stevie Nicks to join Fritz every bit a 2nd vocalist. Their romantic relationship began afterward both left Fritz 5 years later.[12]
1973–1974: Buckingham Nicks [edit]
Stevie Nicks and Buckingham on the Say You Will Tour in 2003
Buckingham and his then-girlfriend Stevie Nicks recorded seven demos in 1972 on a half-inch iv-runway Ampex recorder kept at his male parent's coffee roasting plant in Daly Urban center, and so collection to Los Angeles to pursue a record bargain.[5] [13] In 1973, Polydor Records signed the pair. Their album, produced by Keith Olsen and second engineer Richard Dashut, Buckingham Nicks, was released in September 1973; soon after its release, however, Polydor dropped the duo considering of poor sales. To assist make ends run across, Buckingham toured with Don Everly's bankroll band, singing Phil Everly'south parts.[14]
1975–1980: Fleetwood Mac and mainstream success [edit]
While investigating Sound City recording studio in California, Mick Fleetwood heard the song "Frozen Love" from the Buckingham Nicks anthology. Impressed, he asked who the guitarist was. By chance, Buckingham and Nicks were likewise in Sound City recording demos, and Buckingham and Fleetwood were introduced. When Bob Welch left Fleetwood Mac in Dec 1974, Fleetwood immediately contacted Buckingham and offered him the vacant guitar slot in his band. Buckingham told Fleetwood that he and Nicks were a squad and that he didn't want to work without her. Fleetwood agreed to hire both of them, without an audition. Buckingham and Nicks and then began a curt bout to promote the Buckingham Nicks album. The touring ring included drummers Bob Aguirre and Gary Hodges (playing simultaneously) and bassist Tom Moncrieff, who afterward played bass on Nicks' 1981 album Bella Donna. When they played in Alabama, the 1 expanse where they saw observable sales, they told their fans they had joined Fleetwood Mac.[15]
Fleetwood Mac released their eponymously titled album in 1975, which reached number one on the American charts. Buckingham contributed two songs to the anthology, "Monday Morning" and "I'm So Afraid", while also singing pb on "Bluish Letter" and Nicks' vocal "Crystal". "I'm So Afraid" and "Mon Morning time" were intended for the second Buckingham Nicks LP, but they were instead used with Fleetwood Mac.[16]
Despite the success of the new line-upwards's first anthology, it was their second album, Rumours, that propelled the band to superstar status, becoming one of the best-selling albums of all fourth dimension. Buckingham's "Become Your Own Fashion" was the atomic number 82 single, soaring into the Us Pinnacle 10; also on the album were Buckingham'southward "Second Hand News" and "Never Going Dorsum Once again". Buckingham as well sang co-lead vocal on ii of the band'due south biggest alive staples: "The Chain", written past the unabridged band, and "Don't Stop", a Christine McVie number.
After the resounding commercial success of Rumours (during the making of which Buckingham and Nicks split), Buckingham was determined to avoid falling into repeating the same musical blueprint. The consequence was Tusk (1979), a double album that Buckingham primarily directed. Once again, Buckingham wrote the pb unmarried, the title track that peaked at No. viii on the Billboard Hot 100. Buckingham convinced Fleetwood to let his work on their next album be more experimental and to be allowed to work on tracks at home before bringing them to the rest of the band in the studio. It produced three striking singles: Lindsey Buckingham'south "Tusk" (US No. eight), which featured the USC Trojan Marching Band, Christine McVie's "Retrieve About Me" (US No. 20), and Stevie Nicks' half-dozen½-infinitesimal opus "Sara" (U.s.a. No. seven). "Sara" was cut to iv½ minutes for both the hitting single and the kickoff CD-release of the album, but the unedited version has since been restored on the 1988 greatest hits compilation, the 2004 reissue of Tusk and Fleetwood Mac's 2002 release of The Very All-time of Fleetwood Mac. Original guitarist Peter Light-green also took part in the sessions of Tusk, although his playing on the Christine McVie rail "Brown Optics" is not credited on the album.[17] It was during this time that Buckingham moved in with tape company secretary and aspiring model Carol Ann Harris, with whom he lived until 1984. Though by most standards a hit, Tusk failed to come close to Rumours tape sales, and the album was followed past a hiatus in the ring's studio recording efforts.
1981: Going solo and Law and Order [edit]
During the fourth dimension he worked on Tusk, Buckingham also produced albums for Walter Egan and John Stewart in the belatedly 1970s too as beginning work on his own solo album.
In 1981, Buckingham released his first solo album, Constabulary and Order, playing nearly every instrument and featuring guest appearances past bandmates Mick Fleetwood and Christine McVie. The anthology pursued the quirky, eclectic, frequently lo-fi and New Wave influences of Tusk and spawned the single "Trouble" (inspired by Richard Dashut), which reached No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 in Australia (for 3 weeks).
1982: Mirage [edit]
After a large world tour that ended in 1980, Fleetwood Mac took a year-long pause before reconvening to tape their next album Mirage (1982), a more pop-friendly piece of work that returned the ring to the top of the United states of america album chart. However, by this fourth dimension various members of the band were enjoying success as solo artists (particularly Nicks) and the next Fleetwood Mac anthology was non released until 5 years later.
1983–1986: Go Insane and other solo projects [edit]
In 1983 he wrote and performed the songs "Holiday Road" and "Dancin' Across the USA" for the motion picture National Lampoon's Vacation. "Holiday Road" was released as a single, and reached No. 82 on Billboard 's Hot 100.
In 1984, after ending his 7-year relationship with Carol Ann Harris, he released his second solo album, Get Insane. The title track was a modest hit, reaching No. 23 on the Hot 100. In 2008, he revealed the title track was virtually his post-breakdown human relationship with Stevie Nicks; notwithstanding, Harris claimed in her memoir Storms that the song was written about her breakup with Buckingham. The last runway of the album, "D. W. Suite", was a tribute to the late Beach Boys drummer Dennis Wilson, a close friend of Fleetwood Mac who was briefly engaged to Christine McVie.[eighteen] The side by side year, Buckingham performed on USA for Africa'southward fundraising unmarried, "Nosotros Are the World". In 1986 he co-wrote "Since Y'all've Gone" for Belinda Carlisle's first solo album. He did other soundtrack work, including the song "Time Bomb Boondocks" from Dorsum to the Time to come (1985). Buckingham played all of the instruments on the runway except drums, which were played by Michael Huey.
1987: Tango In the Dark and departure from Fleetwood Mac [edit]
Buckingham'south 5th album with Fleetwood Mac, Tango in the Night, was released in 1987. Buckingham had already released two solo albums and had given up much of the fabric for what would have been his third solo album for the project, including "Big Honey", "Tango in the Dark ", "Family unit Human being", "You and I" and "Caroline". "Big Love", released as the first unmarried from the album, became a top ten hit in the US and the United kingdom.
Propelled by a cord of hit singles, Tango in the Night became the band'south biggest album since Rumours a decade earlier. Withal, following its release, Buckingham left Fleetwood Mac[nineteen] largely because of his desire not to tour and the strain he was feeling within the band. "I needed to get some separation from Stevie especially because I don't recollect I'd always quite gotten closure on our relationship," he said. "I needed to get on with the adjacent phase of my creative growth and my emotional growth. When y'all break up with someone and then for the adjacent 10 years you have to exist around them and do for them and lookout man them move away from you lot, information technology's not piece of cake."[20] Fleetwood Mac connected without him, and Buckingham was replaced by guitarists Rick Vito and Baton Burnette.
1988–1992: Out of the Cradle [edit]
Post-obit his split with Fleetwood Mac in 1987, Buckingham spent much of the side by side 5 years in the studio, working on his third solo album, Out of the Cradle, which was released in 1992. Many of the songs deal with his relationship with Nicks and his determination to leave the band. "At that place were things lingering for years having to do with relationships and the band, hurtful things, that were incommunicable to deal with until I left. If you were in a relationship and divide, then had to see that person every day for the next fifteen years, it might go on you from dealing with some of those things. While we made Rumours (in 1977) there were two couples breaking upward in the ring (Buckingham and Nicks, and John and Christine McVie), and we had to say, 'This is an important matter nosotros're doing, so we've got to put this set of feelings on this side of the room and get on with it.' And when you lot do that long enough you forget that those feelings are fifty-fifty there. On this album, I'm putting all these feelings in the healthiest possible perspective and that, looking at information technology broadly, is a lot of what the album is dealing with. It'south a catharsis, absolutely."[21] "Wrong" was a gentle rebuke of former bandmate Mick Fleetwood's tell-all biography.[22] Out of the Cradle received some favorable reviews but did not achieve the sales levels associated with Fleetwood Mac. Yet, Buckingham toured throughout 1992–93 for the first time as a solo artist; his ring included an army of seven other guitarists (Buckingham himself calls them "the crazy band" on his Soundstage DVD), each of whom he individually taught the unabridged two-and-a-half hours of music from the concert (Lindsey Buckingham: Behind the Music documentary for VH-i, 2001).
1993–2004: Return to Fleetwood Mac [edit]
In 1993, newly elected president Pecker Clinton asked Fleetwood Mac to come up together to perform the vocal he had chosen for his campaign, the Christine McVie-penned "Don't Stop", at the First inauguration of Bill Clinton on January 20, 1993. Buckingham agreed to be part of the performance, but the experience was something of a ane-off for the band, who were all the same very much at odds with one another and had no plans to reunite officially.
While assembling material for a planned fourth solo anthology in the mid-1990s, Buckingham contacted Mick Fleetwood for assistance on a song. Their collaboration lasted much longer than predictable, and the two eventually decided to phone call upon Stevie Nicks, John and Christine McVie. The band'south old chemistry was clearly however there, and plans for a reunion tour were presently in the works. In 1997, Buckingham and all four of his bandmates from the Rumours-era line-up of Fleetwood Mac went on the road for the commencement time together since 1982 in a reunion tour titled The Trip the light fantastic toe. The tour was hugely successful and did much to heal the damage that had been done betwixt Buckingham and his bandmates. However, Christine McVie left the band in 1998 because of her fearfulness of flying and to be with her family in the Uk,[23] thus making the band now a foursome.
A subsequent fourth solo album, entitled Gift of Screws, was recorded between 1995–2001 and presented to Warner Bros./Reprise for release. Executives at the label managed to persuade Buckingham to concord the album back and instead take several tracks from Gift of Screws and use them with Fleetwood Mac. In 2003, the reformed band released the first studio album involving Buckingham and Nicks in 15 years, Say You lot Will. Buckingham'south song "Peacekeeper" was the first unmarried from the album, and the band went on a globe concert tour that lasted almost a year and a one-half. Vii songs from Gift of Screws announced on the Fleetwood Mac album Say You Volition, in substantially the same form as Buckingham had recorded them for his solo release. Bootleg copies of Gift of Screws—taken from an original CD-R presented to Warner Bros/Reprise—are known to be and take been widely distributed among fans through the use of torrent sites and other peer-to-peer networks.
2006–2008: Continuing solo [edit]
On his 57th altogether, October iii, 2006, Buckingham's fourth solo anthology, an acoustic album now entitled Under the Peel, was released. Under the Skin features Buckingham on almost all instruments, with the exception of two tracks that feature Fleetwood Mac's rhythm department of John McVie and Mick Fleetwood. The album includes a cover of the Rolling Stones classic "I Am Waiting". Iii days after the album's release, Buckingham embarked on a tour in support of the album that lasted until the end of June 2007.[24] A alive album and DVD, Alive at the Bass Operation Hall, was released documenting the Fort Worth, Texas show from this tour.[25]
In 2008 the Gift of Screws anthology was finally released, containing three tracks from the originally planned album, as well as seven new recordings. Buckingham then commenced a curt tour to promote Gift of Screws in September and October, opening in Saratoga, California and closing in New York City.[26]

Post-obit Fleetwood Mac's performance at the MusiCares Person of the Year in January 2018,[41] Buckingham was fired from the ring.[42] The reason was said to have been a disagreement near the nature of the bout,[43] and in particular the question of whether newer or less well-known fabric would be included, as Buckingham wanted.[44]
Buckingham and his solo band in 2018.
Mick Fleetwood and the band appeared on CBS This Morning on April 25, 2018, and said that Buckingham would not sign off on a bout that the group had been planning for a year and that they had reached a "huge impasse" and "hit a brick wall". When asked if Buckingham had been fired, he said, "Well, we don't use that word because I think it's ugly." He as well said that "Lindsey has huge amounts of respect [sic] and kudos to what he's washed within the ranks of Fleetwood Mac and ever will."[45] [46] In October 2018, Buckingham filed a lawsuit confronting Fleetwood Mac for breach of fiduciary duty, breach of oral contract and intentional interference with prospective economic reward, amongst other charges; the lawsuit was settled in Dec of the aforementioned year.[47]
Buckingham stated he learned well-nigh the firing after receiving a call from Fleetwood Mac manager Irving Azoff with a message for Buckingham from Stevie Nicks. Buckingham stated that Azoff told him: "Stevie never wants to be on a stage with yous again." According to Azoff, Nicks had taken outcome with, on the evening of MusicCares, the guitarist's flare-up only before the ring's gear up over the intro music—the studio recording of Nicks' "Rhiannon"—and the style he "smirked" during Nicks' thank-you lot speech. Buckingham conceded that "It wasn't about it being 'Rhiannon'. It just undermined the touch on of our entrance. That's me being very specific nearly the right and wrong way to practise something." Days later, Buckingham called Azoff and asked, "Is Stevie leaving the ring, or am I getting kicked out?" Azoff told him that he was "getting ousted" from the band after Nicks gave the other ring members "an ultimatum: Either [Buckingham] go[es] or she's going to get," to which they decided to burn down him.[48] Former Tom Trivial and the Heartbreakers guitarist Mike Campbell and Neil Finn of Crowded House were named to replace Buckingham.[43] [42] Buckingham has stated since that he would be open to rejoining Fleetwood Mac but does not foresee information technology in the future.

Personal life [edit]
Buckingham was in the same high school as Stevie Nicks only a year behind her. He started a relationship with Nicks afterward the breakup of their group Fritz. He then suffered from a bout of mononucleosis, which delayed their motion to Los Angeles in 1971.[53] They recorded an anthology together before joining Fleetwood Mac in 1975, but their human relationship had broken downwardly by 1977. The breakup of their relationship was chronicled in a number of songs written past the 2, such as "Silver Springs"[54] and "Dreams" by Nicks and "Go Your Own Fashion" and "2d Mitt News" past Buckingham.[55] [56]
Buckingham had his first child, William Gregory, with Kristen Messner on July 8, 1998.[57] Buckingham then married Messner in 2000, and they had two daughters, Leelee in 2000 and Stella in 2004.[58] [59] Buckingham and Messner, who is a photographer and interior designer, accept developed homes in Brentwood, California.[lx]

Information technology's with great relief and thankful hearts that we report the surgery was successful in its purpose. Unfortunately, the life-saving procedure caused vocal cord damage, the permanency of which is unclear. Lindsey is slowly recovering at home with the support of his wife and children."[61]
Kristen Messner filed for divorce from Buckingham in Los Angeles on June 2, 2021.[62] It was reported in September, even so, that the couple were working on their union.[63] [64]
Musical way [edit]
Different most rock guitarists, Buckingham does not play with a pick; instead, he picks the strings with his fingers and fingernails and tends to strum with his middle and ring fingers. Initially after joining Fleetwood Mac, Buckingham used a Gibson Les Paul Custom. Before the band, a Fender Telecaster was his master guitar, and was used on his commencement Fleetwood Mac album aslope Fender Stratocasters fitted with an Alembic Blaster.[65] In 1979, he worked with Rick Turner, owner of Renaissance Guitars, to create the Model I. He has used it extensively since, both with Fleetwood Mac and for his solo efforts. He uses a Taylor Guitar 814ce for most of his acoustic performances but uses a custom-made Gibson Chet Atkins guitar for his live performances of "Big Dear". He has also used an Ovation Balladeer in the past from the early 1970s to the tardily 1980s.[66] [67] In the 1980s, he as well extensively used the Fairlight CMI.[68]
His influences include Brian Wilson and Phil Spector. Buckingham has also worked extensively as a producer both for Fleetwood Mac and for his solo piece of work. "I call up of myself as a stylist, and the process of writing a song is role and parcel with putting it together in the studio."[69]
In an interview with Guitar World Acoustic Magazine, Buckingham said:
I've always believed that you play to highlight the song, not to highlight the actor. The vocal is all that matters. There are two ways you can choose to become. You tin effort to be someone like Eddie Van Halen, who is a nifty guitarist, a virtuoso. Nonetheless he doesn't make good records considering what he plays is totally lost in the context of this band'southward music. Then there are guitar players like Chet Atkins, who weren't out there trying to show themselves off as guitarists per se, but were using the guitar as a tool to brand proficient records. I remember loving Chet'south work when I was a kid, simply information technology was merely later, when I really listened to his guitar parts, that I realized how much they were a part of the vocal's fabric, and how much you'd be going 'Oh, that song only isn't working' if they weren't there.[lxx]
In another interview to Guitar Globe, he said about using his fingers rather than a plectrum:
I started playing very young and from early on, the people I was listening to had some element of finger mode. Probably the get-go guitarist I was emulating was Scotty Moore, when I was maybe 6 or 7. And he played with a pick, only he as well used fingers. And a lot of the session players, like Chet Atkins, they played with fingers or a pick. Then I listened to a certain amount of low-cal classical guitar playing. And of course later on, when the starting time wave of rock 'n' roll kind of cruel abroad, folk music was very popular and very influential in my style. So it was really less of a choice than what I barbarous into. I employ a pick occasionally. I certainly use it more in the studio when you want to become a sure tone. Only it'due south just the fashion I came up. I wasn't taught. I simply sort of figured things out on my own terms. I guess that was one of the ways that I became comfortable and it but kind of set in.[71]
In pop culture [edit]
Buckingham has been portrayed by Bill Hader in a recurring sketch titled "What Up with That?" on NBC's Saturday Night Live. The show features Hader as Buckingham, who repeatedly appears as a guest on a talk bear witness in the sketch; notwithstanding, the segment always runs out of time before he can be interviewed.[72] Buckingham has stated he does not empathize the parody, though he considers it a compliment, and he eventually appeared as himself on the May 14, 2011, episode during this sketch, offer to explain why there were two Lindsey Buckinghams.[73] [74]

When I was about 21 some relative I didn't even know left me something similar $10,000, and so 1 of the things I did with that coin was go out and buy an old Ampex one-half-inch 4-rail—like the kind they recoded Sgt. Pepper's on, I gauge. At that fourth dimension, my dad had this pocket-size coffee constitute in Daly City [due south of San Francisco]—they were coffee roasters—and at night I would get up there with Stevie, and a lot of times just past myself, and piece of work on songs and demos.
