The Stevie Project
The Stevie Project is not just a tribute band — it’s a living, breathing homage to the magic, mystery, and magnetism of Stevie Nicks.
Fronted by Edmonton’s own Laurie Slater, and backed by a powerhouse 5-piece band, this captivating show channels decades of Stevie’s storytelling, spellbinding vocals, and unforgettable stage presence into a one-of-a-kind concert experience.
With 30+ years of performance experience across Canada, Laurie brings passion, soul, and authenticity to every note. Her vocals resonate with Stevie’s raw power and emotion — not an impersonation, but a channeled connection.
This is a theatrical, chronological journey through Stevie’s life and music — from her earliest songs to her timeless solo hits — with select Fleetwood Mac classics woven in to tell her story. Each song is paired with a glimpse into the woman who wrote it: her lifelong ties to Lindsay Buckingham, her legendary years with Fleetwood Mac, her enduring collaborations with her backup vocalists Sharon Celani, Lori Perry (now Lori Nicks), and Waddy Wachtel her lifetime guitarist, and her cherished friendships with the likes of Tom Petty and Don Henley and more — along with her poetic musings, spiritual influences, and the deep emotion behind every song she penned.
From the mysticism of Rhiannon, to the rock ‘n’ roll heartbeat of Edge of Seventeen, to the aching beauty of Leather and Lace, The Stevie Project is an unforgettable celebration of Stevie (Stephanie) Nicks — a wild heart, a rock goddess, a musical icon — and the timeless songs that continue to stir our souls.
We are honoured to bring you her music live.
The Stevie Project is an immersive live experience blending story, song, and soul. Laurie and her talented bandmates take audiences on a chronological journey through the timeless hits and the hidden gems that define one of rock’s most iconic singer songwriters and great voices of all time --- Stevie (Stephanie) Nicks.
A few years ago, after a successful three-year run fronting Mac Daddy – The Fleetwood Mac Experience, in the role of Stevie Nicks, Laurie was called to create something new — a show that would celebrate not only the music, but the songwriter, the woman, and the spirit of Stevie Nicks as a standalone solo artist.
Beyond her legendary years with Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Nicks carved out a groundbreaking solo career — becoming one of the first women in rock to stand as both band icon and independent star, on her own terms.
For The Stevie Project each performance is both a tribute and a transformation — honoring Stevie’s legacy while allowing Laurie’s own artistry and spirit to shine through. It’s Laurie's way of giving back to the music that shaped her life and sharing that magic with audiences young and old across the generations!
Just a few highlights of Stevie's career...
- 140+ million records sold worldwide (with Fleetwood Mac and solo)!
- First woman inducted twice into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (1998 with Fleetwood Mac, 2019 as a solo artist)!
- 8× Grammy nominations (solo)!
- 8 multi-platinum solo albums!
- Billboard chart-topping solo career beginning with Bella Donna (1981)!
- When Stevie Nicks joined Fleetwood Mac in 1975, the band’s trajectory changed forever. Her songwriting, mystique, and emotional intensity helped transform a respected blues-rock group into one of the most successful bands in music history.
And Stevie's still performing today!! at age 77!
Laurie always says...
"I am so honored to play the music of Stevie"! and she means it.
