Its been over a month now and the CYH website shows no news. Last update was July 18.
And they didn't even wish Emily a happy birthday..geesh

Both the Dixie Chicks and Court Yard Hounds Twitter (I'm assuming they're run by the same people) wished Emily a happy birthday, so they're not completely gone. I'm sure they're having one last hurrah before the kids go back to school.

I don't think we need worry - they've already said that the new album is on the way, have talked about songwriting, and have even previewed some new songs that are likely to be on it. Since the launch, they've made a good number of appearances at different venues. The chats that have already been streamed have been more of a reach out to fans than we've seen in years. I think they're well on track. What I see as most important is the fact that they've shown every sign of enjoying it, and growing in confidence.

It makes me happy that they seem to enjoy it (CYH) too. I know they must miss performing and recording with the Chicks, back in the days when it was fun.

Last I heard Martie and Emily were on tour. That's why there's been no live chats or anything. There's going to be a new CYH album that we know I really doubt they'd play us songs from the album on the web chat and tell us about the album if there wasn't going to be. As for the Chicks I believe they miss it as much as we do after all they started the band and came up with the name!

I just read today on Billboard.com that the Pistol Annies album is on track to sell 30,000 copies and debut in the top ten. That is half of the Court Yard Hounds' first week sales. Wow. Miranda Lambert is one of the biggest names in Country music right now... and she has radio on her side. Yet, a relatively unknown Dixie Chicks side project doubles their sales. Lol. That is power!

Just found this post on the CYH official site! "Although it may seem like it has been a quiet month in CYH world, Emily and Martie have been hard at work writing and recording new songs for their next album. They'll take a break from that work in September to perform at Austin City Limits as well as visit wine country in California to play two shows." That explains the quiet!!

I can't wait to go to both shows. One is in Saratoga at my favorite venue and the other is in Napa at a venue I've never been to before.

Well please take some photos! Hopefully the live chats will be back soon.
I was thinking that maybe they wanted to keep quiet since the Sugarland incident because the Hounds' stage fell as well in Ottawa. Maybe thats a dumb thing to think but that's what I kinda figured in a way.

Well, Sept 17 is their ACL performance….so……I would think they're gonna have a webchat around that time, right? Maybe even bring in a special guest? Yea, it's been too long. : |
