“We are thrilled to announce that Nancy Wilson, the super talented singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist performer we’ve enjoyed as a member of Heart, will be joining STYX on stage when we return to the Venetian in Las Vegas for five nights: January 28, 29 and February 2,4 and 5. Talk about ‘these dreams’ coming true!!! Come join us!” – STYX singer/guitarist Tommy Shaw
“Looking forward to collaborating with another artist in Las Vegas. We had great fun with Don Felder and are looking forward to rocking with Nancy Wilson.” – STYX co-founding guitarist James “JY” Young
“I’m so pleased to be part of the STYX plus Nancy Wilson collaboration. I think it’s going to be fun and really different from other shows.” – Nancy Wilson
NANCY WILSON is celebrated as a seminal musician in rock ‘n’ roll history. A guitar virtuoso from the age of 9, Nancy (and her sister Ann) lead the multi-Platinum rock group, Heart, who have sold upwards of 35 million albums. WILSON is revered as an ingenious guitar player, and as a gifted lead vocalist. As a songwriter, she has co-written a collection of indelible songs that have earned their way into the classic rock canon (“Magic Man,” “Crazy on You,” “Barracuda,” “Straight On”). Both WILSON sisters were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2013, and were honored with the ASCAP Founders Award in 2009, ASCAP’s most prestigious honor, awarded to songwriters who have made pioneering contributions to music.
In 2020, WILSON turned her attention to recording the first solo album of her storied career, and signed with global label partner Carry On Music for the release of her solo album, YOU AND ME, which was released May 7, 2021. WILSON plays guitar on and sings on all the songs on the entire album, which includes nine new, original songs, including “4 Edward,” a tribute to the late Eddie Van Halen. The first single from the album is her stunning rendition of Bruce Springsteen’s “The Rising.”
