Heart is "comin' straight on for you."
The 2013 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees will perform with guests Cheap Trick on May 15 at the Schottenstein Center, West Lane Avenue and Olentangy River Road.
Citi pre-sales will begin at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday and public ticket sales will start at 10 a.m. Friday at heart-music.com.
With a career that's lasted five decades since forming in Seattle, Heart will be playing their catalog of classics, which includes 20 Top 40 singles. The band is known for both hard-hitting, guitar-driven rockers such as “Magic Man," "Straight On," “Barracuda, and “Crazy on You” as well as their softer sound on songs such as "These Dreams."
The band's present lineup features Ann Wilson (lead vocals, flute), Nancy Wilson (rhythm, lead and acoustic guitar, backing and lead vocals), Ryan Wariner (lead and rhythm guitar), Ryan Waters (guitars), Paul Moak (guitars, keyboards, backing vocals), Tony Lucido (bass, backing vocals) and Sean T. Lane (drums).
Like Heart, Cheap Trick was formed in 1973, miles away in Rockford, Illinois. They're also Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees, having been honored in 2016.
The four-man band has sold 20 million albums worldwide and amassed hits such as “I Want You to Want Me," "Surrender," "Ain't That a Shame," and "The Flame."
Cheap Trick currently consists of lead singer Robin Zander, guitarist Rick Nielsen, bassist Tom Petersson, and Daxx Nielsen, the guitarist's son, who has been the band's touring drummer since 2010, replacing original longtime drummer Bun E. Carlos.
