Rod Stewart and Stevie Nicks announced on The Ellen Degeneres Show today, Thursday, January 13, that they have joined forces for one of the most anticipated musical events of the year, "The Heart & Soul Tour". Launching March 20, 2011 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the tour will unite two of music's most legendary forces for a series of arena concerts throughout North America - with a performance at Detroit's Joe Louis Arena on Sunday, April 10 at 7:30 p.m. Fans can tune-in to the show on Thursday, January 13 to watch their exclusive interview and performances. The tour will feature both artists performing all rock & roll sets from their incomparable catalogs of hits and backed by an incredible band of musicians and stage production. Tickets go on sale Saturday, January 22 at 10 a.m., visit rodstewart.com for details.

Said Rod Stewart: "We haven't yet begun rehearsals but I can already tell you this, with Stevie on board our audiences are in store for an evening of pure rock & roll music. I'm already thinking about which of my old favorites to bring back and vocally, I think we've both begun thinking about which songs might be great fun and well-suited for a duet or two."

In a career spanning five decades, with an estimated 250 million album and single sales, Rod Stewart is a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and indisputably one of the most successful performers of all time. He finished 2010 at the top of both the touring and album charts - highlighted by his critically-heralded, sold-out first run of concerts at The Colosseum in Las Vegas, a "Boxscore," chart-topping, 33-date European summer tour which included 4 sold-out dates at London's O2 Arena. Throughout his prolific career, he's garnered 16-Grammy nominations, including his current for "Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album," and sales of more than one million albums worldwide for his 2010 album Fly Me To The Moon...The Great American Songbook, Volume V.

Stevie Nicks, Rock and Roll's reigning queen, will be releasing her highly anticipated new CD In: Your Dreams on May 3, 2011. The new album, her first album of new material in a decade, was co-produced by former Eurythmic Dave Stewart and Glen Ballard. The new album is now available for fans to pre order at stevienicks.warnerreprise.com. Fans who pre-order the CD will receive an instant download of the record's first single, the Nicks' penned "Secret Love". The official release date of the single is February 3rd. Nicks is a multi-Grammy Award-winning, multi-platinum, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee and member of Fleetwood Mac.
