When I walked into my friends’ beautiful Seattle home for the first time, their living room was brimming with the sound and energy of a live band, joyful dancers, and the music of…Fleetwood Mac?! Amazing. I. LOVE. FLEETWOOD. MAC.
That was my first introduction to Wild Rumours: A Fleetwood Mac Experience. And I suddenly recognized one of the singers: Jen Ayers! The writer/performer of the powerful, glam rock musical “She Said,” Jen’s performances in any show (Teatro Zinzanni, The Triple Door, and so much more) always knock our socks off.
I’ve been keeping an eye on this band’s posts since that night, hoping to find a date they’re playing that works for me. And finally, one does! Wild Rumours: A Fleetwood Mac Experience plays The Showbox (in the Market!) on December 5, 2026.
T and I already have ours. And, actually, now is a perfect time to get yours (I’m a broken record about this, but truly: advance ticket sales help local arts productions immensely. I won’t fill this post up with all the reasons why and how, but trust me, it’s significant).
Wild Rumours consists of musicians Jen Ayers, Patrick Porter, Kathy Moore, Geoff Reading, Richard Davidson, and Annastasia Workman – learn about them here.
Wild Rumours plays The Showbox (Seattle) December 5, 2026. Also this year, the band tours to Ontario, OR on November 14, and Bellingham, WA on December 4. (In 2027, audiences in Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Ohio, Oregon, Washington – Edmonds and Friday Harbor – will get the chance to see them live.)
Side note about performer Jen Ayers: If you’ve been involved in the Seattle theatre scene for a while, you’ve probably seen the heartfelt and powerful new musical “She Said.” Jen wrote the show about her and her partner’s relationship and journey through their transgendered self-discovery and self-actualization, and love. Check out the show description and you’ll see why so many of us have loved this “70s soul/pop and glam rock” heart-centered, inspiring musical. Art that celebrates transgender people also helps build more understanding, compassion, and influence vital social justice change.
Bringing it back to Fleetwood Mac, one of the reasons I mention “She Said” was personally a particularly memorable visual in the show: a flowing golden glowing lighting effect. It’s a visual that echos how I feel when I truly tune in to my essence. The powerful soul-centered music of Fleetwood Mac and Wild Rumours also has that effect on me.
December 5, 2026 is going to be a great night at The Showbox at the Market. See you there, Seattle.
