HEART



MONDAY, MARCH 8, 2010
SAVE ON FOODS MEMORIAL CENTRE – VICTORIA, BC
DOORS 7:00 PM
SHOW 8:00PM

Concerts North Ltd. is pleased to bring legendary rockers HEART to Victoria, March 8 at the Save On Foods Memorial Centre and in Vancouver, March 9 at the Orpheum. Tickets for both performances go on-sale Monday, February 8 at 10 AM.

Ann Wilson and her younger sister, Nancy first showed the world that women can rock when their band HEART stormed the charts in the '70s with hits like "Crazy on You," "Magic Man," "Barracuda," ‘Straight On," "Even It Up," and "Kick It Out". They continued topping the charts through the ‘80s and ‘90s with huge hits like "These Dreams," "Alone," "What About Love," "If Looks Could Kill," and "Never".

HEART started their career in British Columbia, where the group’s first record “Dreamboat Annie” was written, recorded and first released in Canada on Mushroom Records in 1976. Since then, HEART has sold more than 30 million records, have garnered 21 top 40 hits, sold out arenas worldwide, and had a profound influence on rock music. HEART was also ranked # 57 on VH1’s “100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock”.

In the mid-'90s, Ann and Nancy returned to Seattle and formed The Lovemongers, with long-time collaborator Sue Ennis and performer Frank Cox. After playing a number of sold-out shows in Seattle, Lovemongers cut Led Zeppelin's "Battle of Evermore" for the triple platinum soundtrack from the movie Singles, which was one of Nancy’s first of five soundtrack collaborations with filmmaker Cameron Crowe.

Ann and Nancy reunited as HEART in early 2002, during which time they released a critically acclaimed live concert film on DVD and CD, Heart Alive In Seattle, followed in 2004 by Jupiters Darling, the first new HEART studio album in a decade. Classic Rock magazine hailed Jupiters Darling as a career tour de force, calling it "the only record you need to buy this year."

HEART is currently in the studio with Grammy winning producer, Ben Mink, working on a new CD for release later this year. HEART’S performances in Victoria and Vancouver will feature brandnew tracks from the upcoming currently untitled album, as well as their powerhouse hits.

Don’t miss HEART at Save On Foods Memorial Centre on March 8, 2010.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

MUCHMUSIC & 107.3 KOOL FM PRESENTS

HEDLEY - With Special Guests FABER DRIVE, STEREOS And FEFE DOBSON

No Alcohol Service During This Event


TUESDAY, MARCH 23rd, 2010

SAVE-ON-FOODS MEMORIAL CENTRE – VICTORIA, BC

Doors 5:30pm
Show 6:30pm

Hedley, Vancouver’s multi-platinum power pop-rockers have announced today that they are heading out on a cross-Canada tour kicking off in Penticton, BC on March 22nd  and ending up in St. John’s, NL on April 19th.  Special guests Fefe Dobson and Stereos will join them on the road for all dates and US chart-toppers Faber Drive will be on the bill from Penticton on March 22nd to Dawson Creek on March 26th.

There’s been no free ride in Hedley’s steady climb to the top. Over four years, the band has earned two multi-platinum albums and won acclaim and a devoted fan base through a constant regimen of hard work and relentless touring.  Nor is there an ounce of phoniness in the group, led by irrepressible frontman Jacob Hoggard, a former Canadian Idol contestant himself. In fact, much of Hedley’s huge appeal lies in the band members’ refusal to take themselves too seriously.

“We’re not rocket scientists—or rocket surgeons,” chuckles Hoggard.  “We’re the same jerks we’ve always been, four buddies who like to have fun and make music. But our show is no longer about flashing lights and us running around pulling our pants down. We’ve really grown as writers, musicians and performers, so now it’s the full entertainment package.”  That refreshing mix of lighthearted candor and emotional honesty lies at the heart of The Show Must Go, Hedley’s much-anticipated third album.  On this album the band has pushed its robust sound forward without sacrificing any of its distinctive edge.

They may not be “rocket surgeons,” saving lives or saving the world, but Hedley is clearly making a contribution to the music scene. From the fizzy pop-punk of its debut to the sophisticated pop-rock of The Show Must Go, Hedley continues to prove that mixing frivolity with thoughtfulness and showmanship with songcraft is the best formula for success.

Hedley is offering their fans the opportunity to purchase special VIP packages starting November 17th.  The "Amazing" VIP Experience includes great seats, a meet and greet with the band, exclusive merchandise items including a custom cell phone skin, and access to a series of special video messages from the band.  For full details and other package options, visit www.hedleyvip.com.
