HEART,
‘BEAUTIFUL BROKEN,’ OUT THIS FRIDAY, JULY 8
NEW CONCORD RECORDS ALBUM
BY ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME LEGENDS
PREMIERED JULY 6 WITH BILLBOARD.COM STREAM
HEART’S HEADLINING SUMMER TOUR WITH JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTS AND CHEAP TRICK LAUNCHES JULY 14
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legends HEART will release BEAUTIFUL BROKEN–their first new album in four years and first for Concord Records–this Friday, July 8. Billboard.com yesterday (July 6) debuted the full album with an exclusive stream.
BEAUTIFUL BROKEN—HEART‘s sixteenth album in a career with over 35 million albums sold–finds Ann and Nancy Wilson exploring new songs, but taking some of their favorite “cherry picks” from their catalog and rerecording and rethinking them. The title track and first single–the hard-hitting “Beautiful Broken”–features a dynamic guest vocal contribution by Metallica‘s James Hetfield with Ann Wilson.
BEAUTIFUL BROKEN was co-produced by Nancy Wilson with Heart‘s bassist Dan Rothchild. Rothchild had previously produced Better Than Ezra’s platinum-selling Deluxe, but he also comes from rock royalty: his father was legendary Doors producer Paul Rothchild. BEAUTIFUL BROKEN was recorded at Sunset Sound in Los Angeles, the same studio the Doors cut their best work.
Starting next week–Thursday, July 14–HEART will launch their summer headlining run with Joan Jett & the Blackhearts and Cheap Trick, to be followed by HEART solo shows in October.
HEART’s 2016 tour dates are as follows:
DATE CITY VENUE
Rock Hall Three For All Tour w/ Joan Jett and the Blackhearts and Cheap Trick
