Classic-rock legends Heart, led by iconic sibling duo Nancy and Ann Wilson, tore across the United States last year on the Royal Flush tour. The show touched down at the Pinnacle in Nashville on December 21, and prior to the festivities, PG’s John Bohlinger met up with lead shredder Nancy Wilson and her tech/“guitar butler” Nathan McMurdo, plus guitarists Ryan Wariner and Ryan Waters.
