The Eagles will headline Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, June 15th with special guests the Dixie Chicks and Keith Urban. The Eagles – Glenn Frey, Don Henley, Joe Walsh and Timothy B.

The Eagles last performed in Washington, D.C. in 2008.

The Dixie Chicks – Martie Maguire, Emily Robison and lead singer Natalie Maines – will hit the stage for the first time in four years, performing songs from all three of their albums including smash hits, “Wide Open Spaces,” “Goodbye Earl,” and “Not Ready to Make Nice.”

Urban’s career has produced some of the industry’s best known and most loved songs – 11 #1s. “Days Go By,” “Sweet Thing,” Who Wouldn’t Wanna Be Me,” “You’ll Think of Me,” “Better Life,” as well as Billboard’s Country Song of the Decade, “Somebody Like You,” will highlight Urban’s performance.
