This will mark the first time the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame siblings will perform live together since Heart’s most recent tour wrapped up in October 2016.
“We are thrilled to be taking the stage together for the first time in three years at [Love Rocks NYC!],” the Wilson sisters write in a joint statement on Heart’s Facebook page.
“All proceeds will benefit [the God’s Love We Deliver charity], which will cook and home-deliver over 1.8 million medically tailored meals this year to New Yorkers living with severe illness.”
Other artists confirmed to perform at the sold-out charity gig include Robert Plant, ZZ Top‘s Billy Gibbons, blues legend Buddy Guy, Sheryl Crow, ex-Fabulous Thunderbirds guitarist Jimmie Vaughan, Taj Mahal, Hozier, Grace Potter and Keb Mo.
Whoopi Goldberg and Martin Short will host the event.
Ann Wilson was part of the lineup of the 2018 Love Rocks NYC! benefit concert.
As previously reported, Heart has lined up a major North American summer trek dubbed the Love Alive tour, that will feature a variety of support acts, including Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Crow, Elle King and Brandi Carlile.
The outing gets underway on July 9 in Maryland Heights, Missouri, and is plotted out through a September 9 concert in Los Angeles.
