After a long hiatus that left fans wondering, Heart is set to return to the stage, reuniting sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson for their first tour since 2019. The decision, fueled by a mutual longing to perform together again, overrides any lucrative offers from promoters.
Ann shared her thoughts with ‘Rolling Stone,’ saying, "We were tired of not playing together, and we both wanted to do a Heart tour." The question fans wondered: Could Heart truly be Heart without either Ann or Nancy? Their answer was a resounding no, leading them to reconcile past discomforts and embrace the future of their music together.
The reunion comes after a turbulent period marked by a family rift in 2016, when Ann's husband, Dean Wetter, was involved in an altercation with Nancy’s teenage sons. Reflecting on the incident, Ann expressed regret over not resolving the matter privately within the family, which escalated to legal consequences for Wetter.
Nancy, prioritizing her children's welfare, followed the legal requirements to protect her custody rights. Despite differing views on the handling of the situation, both sisters agree that the shadow cast by the event is gradually receding, which has allowed them to focus on their bond and a shared passion for music.
There is one song fans won't hear on their setlist: the controversial 1990 hit "All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You." The song's narrative, detailing a woman's one-night stand resulting in pregnancy, has long been a point of contention for the Wilson sisters.
Ann finds the song's message distasteful, while Nancy feels it lacks the essence of rock. The remainder of the group’s hits should be on full display in the upcoming tour. We’re glad to see them back together.
