All three Dixie Chicks will get back in the studio and record together. Not for themselves but for Steve Martin. Billboard.com says the Chicks will be singing on a track on Martin's new album. Martie Maguire says she thinks the three of them assumed they were going to play on his album, too. But, she says they're "just harmonizing."

Robison says they're taking it "one thing at a time as far as opportunities from the outside." And, she says she "would dare say that in the next nine months" they'll "be doing something, one way or another."
