The Profile

American rock band fronted by sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson. Rose in the ’70s with hard/folk rock, then dominated ’80s AOR with chart-topping power ballads and sleek production.

Based in Seattle; led by Ann Wilson (lead vocals) and Nancy Wilson (guitars, vocals). Early work shows strong Led Zeppelin influence; later embraced polished ’80s AOR. Key albums in reviews: Little Queen (with “Barracuda”), Bebe Le Strange (1980 transition), Passionworks (1983 step toward AOR), and Heart (1985) with the hit “These Dreams.” Noted collaborators/members in the era include Howard Leese (guitar), Mark Andes (bass) and Denny Carmassi (drums).

American rock band led by Ann and Nancy Wilson, praised for ’70s hard/folk rock with heavy Zeppelin influence and a successful pivot to ’80s AOR. Reviews hail Little Queen (and its ‘Barracuda’ opener), frame Bebe Le Strange as a sharp transition, and track the synth-tinged steps of Passionworks toward the fully polished 1985 Heart. Ann’s powerhouse vocals and Nancy’s guitar work are recurring highlights.
