Heart is an American rock band that has been making music since 1973. The band was formed in Seattle, Washington, by founding members Roger Fisher and Steve Fossen. The two musicians had previously played together in a number of different projects, including The Army, Hocus Pocus, and White Heart. However, it wasn’t until they joined forces with sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson that Heart truly began to take shape.
Ann and Nancy Wilson had grown up in a musical household, with their parents encouraging them to explore their musical talents from a young age. Ann had already established herself as an accomplished vocalist by the time she met Fisher and Fossen, while Nancy was an accomplished guitarist. Together, the Wilson sisters brought a new level of energy and creativity to the band, helping to make Heart one of the most successful and influential rock bands of the 1970s and beyond.
Over the years, Heart has released a string of hit albums and singles, including their self-titled debut album, which featured the hits “Crazy on You” and “Magic Man,” and the iconic album Little Queen, which included the hit “Barracuda.” The band’s unique sound, which blended hard rock with elements of folk and pop, helped to define the rock music of the era and inspired countless musicians in the years that followed.
Despite numerous changes to the band’s lineup over the years, Heart continued to create music that captivated audiences around the world. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2013, cementing their place as one of the most important and influential rock bands of all time. Today, Heart continues to be celebrated by fans and music critics alike, and their legacy lives on through their timeless music.
