Heart is on their “The Royal Flush Tour”… stopping by VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena, in Jacksonville, Florida, on June 24.

Currently, the band features Ann Wilson (lead vocals and flute), Nancy Wilson (rhythm lead and acoustic guitar, mandolin, mandola, autoharp, blues harp, backing and lead vocals) Ryan Wariner (lead and rhythm guitar), Ryan Waters (lead and rhythm guitar), Paul Moak (lead and rhythm guitar, keyboards, mandolin, banjo and backing vocals), Tony Lucido (bass and backing vocals) and Sean Lane (drums and bike).

We saw Ann Wilson in July 2017 and said, “Heart vocalist Ann Wilson and her solo band, The Ann Wilson Thing! headlined the recent 4th Annual RibFest weekend, held outside in the parking lot of Mystic Lake Casino in suburban Prior Lake. Acts playing earlier in the day included The Edgar Winter Group, Alex Rossi, and a reunited Winger. Best known as the singer for the legendary Seattle band, Wilson has recently re-emerged as a solo artist with a couple of EPs (on Olympic Trust/Rounder Records) and a tour which showcases her own body of work, as well as pays tribute to some of her influences and the classic songs that inspired her.”

MC Chris
with Swell Rell and Legit
at Jack Rabbits
jaxlive.com

Rapper MC Chris is on his “20 Years of Touring” tour, stopping by Jack Rabbits, in Jacksonville, on June 28th.

We saw MC Chris in November 2016 and noted, “Although MC Chris confessed he will never be a millionaire, one thing is for sure, his fanbase is quite passionate and goes to all his shows and sings along to every song. They’ll buy his records, they’ll get it signed (standing in a single filed line, of course), and they absolutely adore what MC Chris had to say…. including 10 minute rants about Star Wars and those Tauntauns or talking about respecting women, etc. ”

Swell Rell and Legit to open.
