In the late 1970s and early ’80s, Heart put hit after hit on the airwaves.
“Barracuda,” “Crazy On You,” “Magic Man,” “Alone” and “Dreamboat Annie” are just a few that come to mind.
Now, over 40 years later, singer Ann Wilson is bringing all the singalong songs you know and love from way back when on the road.
From July 14 through Oct. 15, she’ll perform 25 concerts all over North America.
That includes a huge gig at Englewood, NJ’s Bergen Performing Arts Center on Aug. 26 and Albany, NY’s The Egg on Aug. 29.
And based on our findings, tickets are relatively affordable to see the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee live along with her backing band Tripsitter.
At the time of publication, we found some tickets going for as low as $37 before fees on Vivid Seats.
By our estimation, that’s worth the price of “Barracuda” live.

Nancy Wilson
Wilson’s sister and Heart co-founder toured earlier this year.
For a period of time, the sisters were estranged after Ann’s husband, Dean Wetter, assaulted Nancy’s 16-year-old twin sons in 2016 which led to his arrest.
After three years, they reunited for the 2019 Love Rocks Concert in New York City.
You can read more about the siblings’ relationship here.

These days, Wilson travels with her new band Tripsitter.
The hard rockin’ group has plans to release a new album comprised of original material with Wilson sometime in the near future according to the Hennepin Theatre Trust.
In the meantime, check out a sound check before a recent gig to get a taste of their sound.
