Heart's always-busy tour calendar is filling up for 2015, including a series of dates with special guests Joan Jett and the Blackhearts.

The Foo Fighters started their week-long residency on 'Late Show With David Letterman' by paying tribute to Black Sabbath, but for their second night, they stayed much closer to home, teaming up with Heart for a rendition of the Seattle legends' 'Kick It Out.'

Heart are sharing last year's holiday TV special across multiple formats just in time for the Yuletide season.

During the 1970s, I remember staying up late on a Friday night to "The Midnight Special" on NBC-TV. Long before MTV and and the digital age, that show gave us a closer look at some of the top artists of the day, performing live on stage.

Bassist Mark Andes and drummer Denny Carmassi, members of Heart during the band's mid-'80s resurgence, have filed a lawsuit against the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for using their likenesses in promoting the band's 2013 induction -- even though they themselves were not inducted.

Proceeds from the 'Set Them Free' album will support of Rock Against Trafficking.

Normally I would argue that there is nothing like the original tune, but covering a song and doing it well is an art in and of itself, especially when you're toying with arguably the greatest rock song of all time. And if that wasn't pressure enough, sprinkle in that the original band is looking on while you do it: That was the stage set for Heart as they sang Stairway to Heaven in tribute for Led

The learning curve of any band, particularly as live performers, is a tricky minefield to navigate of the course of a career. But for Heart, it's resulted in a more versatile band than ever. In an exclusive interview with Ultimate Classic Rock, singer Ann Wilson told us about how the band led by her and her sister Nancy have evolved onstage since their beginnings in the '70s.

Book your plane tickets to Seattle, Joan Jett and Heart fans, because they'll be teaming up for a one-of-a-kind charity event in the city this spring.

Since announcing their decision to cancel a planned performance at Orlando's SeaWorld, Heart's Ann and Nancy Wilson have had some time to think about their position on the park's treatment of its captive animals -- and they're still pretty steamed.

Heart's 2012 career-spanning stop at the Caesars Colosseum in Windsor, Ontario, will be released on multiple video and audio formats in February. 'Fanatic Live From Caesars Colosseum' will showcase many of the band's classic songs as well as a number of tracks from their most recent studio album, 2012's 'Fanatic.'

Heart has joined the growing ranks of musicians refusing to play SeaWorld, pulling out of an upcoming show there over concerns about how the venue treats their captive whales.
