Nancy Wilson has no interest in reuniting with Heart‘s original lineup, and has reportedly refused at least one lucrative offer to do so. In a recent conversation with TheWashington Post, Ann Wilson’s manager, Dave Frey, noted that Heart had been given a “big offer” to perform a special concert at Washington state’s famous Gorge Amphitheatre, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the band’s debut album, Dreamboat Annie. The request, he explained, was to have Heart’s original 1975 lineup back together for the show. According to Frey, Ann was on board with the idea, even suggesting that a document...

Heart scored a bevy of hits in the ‘80s, yet Nancy Wilson believes one of their biggest successes “never felt like a Heart song.” During the ‘80s, Heart was routinely working with outside writers. The process yielded strong results, but it was also tedious. “We gave a lot of songs a good try,” Wilson noted during an appearance on the Broken Record podcast, recalling how she’d spend hours listening to demo cassettes. “There were some real turkeys. A lot of really bombastic ballads… You know, like a bunch of very righteous sounding marching songs. Either marching rock songs or bombastic ballads ...

Heart has enjoyed a longer career spanning multiple decades, but the band has definitely had to evolve along the way. During an appearance on the Broken Record podcast, Nancy Wilson noted the challenges her group faced going from the ‘70s to the ‘80s. “We were kind of victims of longevity in a certain way because the styles change and you want to not change that much,” the guitarist explained, noting that the “mind-expanded perspective” which permeated during the ‘70s gave way to the “cocaine perspective, which was a little more money and ego driven.” Following mainstream success in the ‘70s, ...

During an appearance on the Broken Record podcast, Wilson recalled watching Fleetwood Mac’s monumental success in the ‘70s. “They were happening right before us, kind of as Heart was just starting to tiptoe into the scene, and they already had Rumours out there,” the guitarist remembered. “We were just trying so hard to make an album and get out there and get a tour or whatever, and they were all over the radio.” As Wilson explained, her envy wasn’t just about commercial success.

This weekend, Heart will hit the road for a tour featuring both Ann and Nancy Wilson for the first time since 2019. The band’s return is exciting for fans, and also reflects the mended relationship between the Wilson sisters. “We’re talking. We’re fine together. We just felt it, so why not?” Ann explained during a conversation with Billboard. “The common ground is that we both want it to be excellent and we both want it to be absolutely Heart. We just basically put it together and said, ‘Let’s go!’” An assortment of factors led to the band’s break. In 2016, Ann’s husband was arrested for alleg...
