Original Heart Members Form New Band

. (Classic Rock) Original Heart members Steve Fossen and Mike Derosier have launched a new spin-off called Heart By Heart. Bassist Fossen and drummer Derosier insist the act isn't a cover band, but rather the "second incarnation" of the rock group that found fame in the 1970s and enjoyed a revival in the 80s.

The classic lineup of Heart - which included Fossen and Derosier - was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in 2013. Fossen says: "With Mike and me at the helm, we can, once again, help bring out those musical nuances and ignite the energy within our own band that made Heart one of the most beloved rock groups of our time."

Fossen's longtime collaborator Somar Macek take lead vocal duties in Heart By Heart while Randy Hansen is on guitar. Keyboards are handled by Bob Rivers while Lizzy Daymont is on guitar and vocals. Read more here.
