Heart Rocks the Royal Albert Hall With Epic Orchestra!

Heart, a band that found its soul in the 1970s thanks to the Wilson sisters, Ann and Nancy, made history as the first ladies of hard rock. Ann took over the mic while Nancy rocked the guitar, together bringing a fresh, female front to the rock scene.

Fast forward forty years, and the magic hadn’t faded. In June 2016, Heart took the stage at the legendary Royal Albert Hall in London for the first time, joined by the grand Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Ann, in her mid-60s, belted out their biggest hit, “Alone,” proving age is just a number when it comes to raw talent.

Heart wasn’t just about powerful performances; they were storytellers. Songs like “Magic Man” and “Crazy on You” painted vivid pictures of love and the era’s turmoil. “Barracuda” showed the world their rage against unfounded rumors. And though they didn’t write “Alone,” their rendition turned the song into a monumental hit, showcasing their unique ability to bring emotion to the forefront.

The 2016 concert was a high point, but tension was brewing. A family dispute put a strain on the Wilson sisters, leading to a painful period of separation. It wasn’t until 2019 that the duo mended fences and hit the stage together again, though with a new backing band.

The performance at the Royal Albert Hall was a reminder of Heart’s enduring legacy and the unpredictable journey of the Wilson sisters. Their music, their passion, and their resilience continue to inspire, making that night a precious memory for fans worldwide.
