NEW YORK (AP) _ Martie Maguire of the Dixie Chicks and her husband, Gareth, have welcomed another addition to their all-girl brood: daughter Harper Rosie Maguire.

The couple have twin daughters, Eva and Katie, born in 2004.

"Martie is doing very well and Gareth and the family are over the moon," the band said in a statement.

Maguire, 38, plays fiddle and mandolin in the Dixie Chicks, which also includes Natalie Maines and Emily Robison. Hits by the Chicks include "Wide Open Spaces," ''Without You," ''Landslide" and "Travelin' Soldier."

    • I do. Love the Dixie Chicks. I don't know their music, but they stood up against the Bush fear mongers. The ironic thing is that this little girl will be paying for Bush's polital tax deferments for today's rich, and for the war he chose to start....
