Dixie Chicks Help Fight AIDS With New Music
In commemoration of World AIDS Day (December 1), the Dixie Chicks have contributed a new song, 'Lucky Ones,' to a new digital music magazine called RED(Wire). It's the trio's first release since winning five Grammys in 2007.
A $5 subscription allows users to receive a new issue of the magazine every Wednesday, with either an exclusive song from a major artist, a song from a new artist, or a multimedia piece. Proceeds will benefit HIV-infected people in Africa.
Other artists teaming with the magazine include Keith Urban, Sheryl Crow, Emmylou Harris, U2, Coldplay, John Legend, R.E.M. and Bob Dylan. Collaborations include Elvis Costello and the Police, as well as the Killers, Elton John and the Pet Shop Boys' Neil Tennant.
