Home is the sixth studio album by American country band Dixie Chicks, released in 2002 (see 2002 in music). It is notable for its acoustic bluegrass sound, which stands in contrast with their previous two country pop albums.

The album has the distinction of being the album the band was promoting when lead singer Natalie Maines made her now famous comments about U.S. President George W. Bush. The album's third single, "Travelin' Soldier", was #1 on the Billboard Country Chart the week that Maines' comments hit the press. The following week, as many stations started a still-standing boycott of the Chicks' music, the song collapsed. None of the following singles gained traction with country radio.

Despite these events, the album was very successful for the group, receiving 6x platinum status by the RIAA, having shifted 6 million units. [1] The album also featured a cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide", which was their biggest pop crossover hit to date, reaching #7 on the Billboard Hot 100.

The album was also successful in Australia, in its 175th week in the country charts it was certified Triple Platinum for shipments of 210,000 copies.^[1] ARIA.
