Tickets on Sale for Ann Wilson Of Heart Buckhead Theatre this Friday

The Fox Theatre is pleased to announce the Ann Wilson Of Heart cross-country tour, which stops at Atlanta's Buckhead Theatre for a one-night only performance on Tuesday, June 6 at 7:30 p.m.

"The stage is a magical place where I can be beautifully in and out of control, where I can build a fire and then jump into it," said Ann Wilson, the esteemed and pioneering Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend who's known for her force-of-nature vocals. "The stage is where I have always lived; where I've expressed my deepest emotions and supreme joys." Ann continued: "I suppose I am addicted to it. I've never been much good at talking, but I can sing, and when I sing I connect with people in a much deeper, higher way."

Tickets go on sale Friday, March 31 at 10 a.m. and will be available at Ticketmaster.com, by calling the (800) 745-3000, or by visiting the Buckhead Theatre Box Office. Tickets are priced at $55 and $75, plus applicable fees.

Musicians on board for the Ann Wilson Of Heart tour include Craig Bartock on guitar (Heart member for a dozen years, who also performed in the Ann Wilson Thing for two years) from San Francisco; Andy Stoller on bass (the Ann Wilson Thing member for two years) from Seattle; Denny Fongheiser on drums and percussion (Heart member in the 1990's for two years) from Los Angeles.

What will fans experience at these shows? "People can expect the unexpected in 2017," said Ann. "A beautiful, classy set with an elegant, artistic production...The music will be a mix of songs that have powered my life; iconic soul stirring covers, songs from my years of solo work and the unforgettable songs of Heart." The name for the upcoming tour, explained Ann, "is to give people a point of recognition; to help people understand who I am and where I came from."

Ann Wilson's musical gifts are legendary. As a songwriter and lyricist, she has created a truly impressive body of work ("crazy on you," "barracuda," "magic man," "dog & butterfly," "straight on", "even it up," "mistral wind," and many, many more). However, her greatest gift, and first "calling" is singing. Her voice is considered to be among the best ever, with its vast range, amazing power and sheer musicality. It has inspired legions of great singers, across every genre of music.

"Ann Wilson of Heart is what I have been preparing for all my life," said Ann. "The time is right, and I'm ready."
