Heart expands in-progress tour into fall

Iconic rock outfit Heart will continue performing songs from its 35-year discography with dates now extending into the summer and early fall.

The US trek, which kicked off in late March and continues Wednesday night (5/20) in Charlottesville, VA, will stop by 40 cities through the final gig Oct. 18 in Tucson, including a round of shows alongside classic rockers Journey. The full schedule is below.

The duo--made up of sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson--released their most recent effort, "Jupiter's Darling," in 2004. The album marked their first new studio set since 1995.

The pair was recently presented with the ASCAP Founders Award at the organization's 26th Annual Pop Music Awards ceremony in April and will celebrate the upcoming 30th anniversary of their multi-platinum 1978 release "Dog & Butterfly" with special events to be announced at the sisters' website.

According to an ASCAP-related press release, Heart is also preparing to enter the studio some time this year to work on the duo's 14th studio album.
