Heart Tour Postponed Due To Ann Wilson’s Cancer Diagnosis

Ann Wilson, singer for Heart has released the following message:

Dear friends,
I recently underwent an operation to remove
something that, as it turns out, was cancerous.

The operation was successful & I’m feeling great but
my doctors are now advising me to undergo a course
of preventative chemotherapy & I’ve decided to do it.
And so my doctors are instructing me to take the rest
of the year away from the stage in order to fully recover.

To the ticket buyers, I really do wish we could do these
gigs. Please know that I absolutely plan to be back on
stage in 2025. My team is getting those details sorted
& we’ll let you know the plan as soon as we can.

Thank you all for the support.
This is merely a pause.
I’ve much more to sing.
Love,
Ann Wilson

Respectfully, this is the last public statement I’d like to
make on the matter.
