From WMMR.com: Ann and Nancy Wilson will be back devoting their attention to Heart for the next six months, having announced a bunch of new tour dates for the first half of the year. Heart kicks off it’s 2010 gigs on January 29th and 30th at the Las Vegas Hilton, and so far, will wrap up their dates on May 29th in Indio, California.
The Wilson sisters spread their wings in 2009, collaborating on the children’s book Dog And Butterfly — which was inspired by their 1978 album of the same name. In October, Nancy also released a set of acoustic children’s lullabies called Baby Guitars.
Ann Wilson says that she’s proud that Heart still tries to grow both in the studio as well as on stage: “Well, you know, we’re not bound by the Heart tradition. Heart is now a brand name that we worked really hard on, and now we’re not selling that brand of soap. It’s funny how you can get into a prison of your own making with a big-name band like that, and all of a sudden, you look around yourself and you go, ‘Jesus, I don’t want to do this. That’s not really where we’re at.'”
Nancy Wilson says that Heart has been caught in a strange place throughout the years, with management and record labels pushing the band to not develop as artists: “They tell you not to reinvent yourself. They tell you that your fans have an identity that they know, that is familiar to them, that they don’t want to change. It’s interesting. But in our case, I mean, we’ve been able to change a lot, but we’ve had to fight to be able to change a lot (laugh).” )
Thanx to Ronnie from the Heartmonger Blog
