ROADCASE ROYALE<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Nancy Wilson and Liv Warfield have released a press release about ROADCASE ROYALE, Nancy’s new side project you’ve been able to follow in this previous heartlinker.nl post<\/a>.\u00a0The press release announces new music, premieres “GET LOUD” and talks about plans for a tour.<\/p>\n

Press release from Friday January 20th 2017:<\/p>\n

Nancy Wilson, one of the founding members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group Heart, has teamed up with former Prince band member and R&B singer Liv Warfield to form a new super group called ROADCASE ROYALE. The sound of ROADCASE ROYALE is muscular rock with some R&B\/Blues and in depth ballads thrown in, reflecting the iconic sounds of both their respective bands. ROADCASE ROYALE\u2019s debut song is available to stream now via the band\u2019s Soundcloud page. The song, \u201cGet Loud,\u201d is a ROADCASE ROYALE original, and “will debut January 20th immediately following Concert for America: Stand Up, Sing Out!”, which will be livestreamed through Facebook. The song will also be featured at the Women\u2019s March on Austin, TX (the largest ever gathering of Texas women) on January 21.<\/p>\n

GET LOUD<\/p>\n

Joining Wilson (guitar) and Warfield (vocals) are lead guitarist Ryan Waters (the musical director for Liv\u2019s solo work and Prince prot\u00e9g\u00e9) along with Heart members Chris Joyner (keys), Dan Rothchild (bass), and Ben Smith (drums). Each of the members\u2019 musical talents shines in \u201cGet Loud.\u201d The song begins with a laid-back groove, providing a solid acoustic and electric foundation for Warfield\u2019s vocals \u2013 all about getting loud and standing up for women\u2019s equality. \u201cGet Loud\u201d blends this important message with the group’s R&B and rock influences, resulting in a uniquely powerful track.<\/p>\n

From ROADCASE ROYALE Facebook<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The band has recorded five new original songs as well as plans for a tour early in 2017. Wilson has said, ROADCASE ROYALE\u2019s activity doesn\u2019t mean Heart is going away. \u201cROADCASE ROYALE is a side project,\u201d she notes, \u201cand not a replacement for Heart.\u201d She also stated that the name ROADCASE ROYALE came to the group during a backstage meeting they had last year, and said \u201cWhen I came up with the name ROADCASE ROYALE it was an interesting symbol to me since the big heavy duty road cases that our amps, drums and guitars travel in are much like the musicians they accompany on the road. Strong and regal looking yet all scuffed up and dented, covered in funny stickers that tell the story of a crazy traveling circus.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be fun to see our road cases with ROADCASE ROYALE stenciled on the side!\u201d Wilson added.<\/p>\n
