Heart Hit the Road : Rolling Stone

Heart are hitting the road this summer for a twenty-six-city tour -- their first in nine years. Ann and Nancy Wilson will be joined by Ben Smith on drums, Tom Kellock on keyboards, Scott Olson on guitar and Mike Inez of Alice in Chains on bass. The tour kicks off on June 21st in Fargo, North Dakota, and wraps up in their hometown of Seattle on August 8th.

The Wilson's have been at work on a new album, their first since 1993's Desire Walks On. "It will be just the two of us this time," Ann Wilson told Rolling Stone last October. "We expect to play most of the instruments ourselves."

Heart will also appear on an upcoming episode of Musicians on the Bravo network, airing May 6th.
