Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members Heart return with Beautiful Broken, their sixteenth album and their first on Concord Records. Heart has sold over 35 million records, and this anticipated album is their first in four years.
Beautiful Broken finds Ann and Nancy Wilson exploring new songs, as well as taking some of their favourite “cherry picks” from their catalogue and rerecording and reimagining them. The album spans a wide range of musical flavors, though all wrapped up in the Wilson sisters’ unique brand of hard hitting rock, and even draws a few friends of the band into the mix. The title track features a dynamic guest vocal contribution by Metallica’s James Hetfield with Ann Wilson, while another of the brand new songs, “Two,” was penned by hip-hop artist, Ne-Yo.
The album comprises 3 new original tracks and 7 fully re-recorded band favorites from Heart’s catalogue. The re-records also include string sections provided by the Hungarian Studio Orchestra.
