NANCY WILSON (Composer) has been a prolific force in the music world for over three decades. She and her older sister Ann Wilson created one of the first formidable female rock bands in 1974 and saw the release of their debut album “Dreamboat Annie” rise up the charts. Heart has sold over 30 million records, had 21 Top 40 hits, sold-out arenas worldwide and inspired a generation of female rockers. The sisters formed another band, the Lovemongers, in 1991. This band gave them a chance to get back to their roots and bring a new freshness to their music by allowing them to, once again, play smaller venues and clubs. As the Lovemongers and Heart, the two women have released several albums and re-releases and have continued to mount successful live concert tours. Not content to limit herself to world of the rock `n' roll, Wilson began to expand her musical horizons to include film score composition and writing and recording singles for film. She provided additional music for her husband Cameron Crowe's directorial debut “Say Anything…” in 1989 and went on to score and write two songs including the theme “We Meet Again” for the Oscar-winning film “Jerry Maguire,” written and directed Crowe. Nancy also composed the entire score and co-wrote six original songs for Crowe's Oscar and Grammy-winning motion picture “Almost Famous.” Most recently, she composed the score to Crowe's film “Vanilla Sky” and contributed the song “I Fall Apart.” In early 1999, Nancy recorded a solo album, “Live at McCabe's,” released by Epic Records that led to her debut solo tour earning high praise from the New York Times among others. In mid 2004, Heart released their latest work “Jupiter's Darling.” The album has received positive reviews and widespread acclaim. Adding to her long list of achievements, Nancy earned an Emmy for her narration of “Baby Wild,” a multi-part nature series on whales, otters and other wild life. Wilson and Crowe have been married for nineteen years and currently live in Los Angeles with their twin boys William and Curtis.
