- In this episode of The Conversation, Nancy Wilson from Heart sits down with Aly & AJ. The Conversation, a Gibson TV Original Series, gives two artists from similar genres and different generations the chance to sit down and discuss their journeys through music.
In this wide-ranging discussion, Nancy and Aly & AJ talk about how they initially met and first got together to write songs and how the music they wrote was different than what Aly & AJ were doing at the time. Nancy gathered info from them to figure out their vision and how she could help - what music they listen to, what books they read - trying to get a feel for what they wanted to write about and sound like.
Nancy is featured on Aly & AJ’s latest album, “A Touch of the Beat Gets You Up on Your Feet Gets You Out and Then Into the Sun,” playing guitar and singing backing vocals on their song “Listen!!!”
Nancy also talks about making her new solo album during the pandemic and the creative process; recording at home and then emailing tracks to other musicians and collaborators. They all discuss the expectations placed on artists by record labels and the industry and the struggle to retain their sound and creative vision. Aly & AJ discuss trying to put back the human element into their latest album.
Nancy tells us about her first guitar and how she was inspired by the Beatles. She also talks about her guitar collection. Nancy also tells a story about giving Eddie Van Halen one of her acoustic guitars and what it was like honoring Led Zeppelin at The Kennedy Center Honors. Nancy also talks about what it’s like to be in a band with her sister, which of course, is something that sisters Alyson and Amanda Michalka (Aly & AJ) can also relate to!

My mom grew up loving Heart and I grew up loving Aly & AJ. I love that they have a relationship.
Just a terrific conversation between a rock legend and 2 articulate, bright and talented contemporary artists.
I just so much love how Nancy is so willing to share herself & things of her life with everyone like this. Very kind education for everyone, good example people.
Nancy Wilson is a legend my brother God rest his soul showed me her music that she made with her sister in the band Hart and my life changed forever I remember every album that came out that was new that he didn’t have he made a point to find a way to get the albums I have every vinyl that Hart ever created and I also have a Gibson Nancy Wilson Chicago blue nighthawk that is so dear to my soul I love you Nancy music wouldn’t have existed if I wouldn’t have discovered you at such a young age your style of music playing inspired me and it started from such a deep place inside of me and it grew until it took me over
Nancy Wilson one of the first great women guitarist to break through in the 70s. She is a legend we love her.
💯
I had such a crush on Nancy when I was 17. I am 57 now and still have the same crush on her. Love #18 Gibson Dave from Canada
Im in the same boat, Had the poster of them.
Nancy Wilson, the First Lady of rock guitar, still gorgeous and still rocking on. Love her Nighthawk signature.
Thanks Gibson TV - ever since the mid 70's I can't get enough Nancy. Great vibe with the ladies!
Thanks for watching Paul!
There is something magical about two sisters harmonizing together. Obviously heart, Larkin Poe and these two young women and the many many others who are too vast to name. All the luck and much respect girls!
Same with guys harmonizing together, the Bee Gees are all brothers and they're great! The Wilson sisters are as well though I love them both 🙌🤘
I saw Heart 5 times live. Nancy Wilson and her sister Ann, are such great musicians. Heart is a great band. Great interview. Cheers! ✌️
Nancy is almost in her 70's and she's still so beautiful! 💘
I love you Nancy!

It is refreshing to me as a guy to
hear a couple of ladies speaking
their minds and they are thinking
the thoughts that I have always
had about Heart , it just feels so

You and Ann are the best thing

Yes, if you have the money and the patience you can pretty much get anything made

i love nancy wilson and her guitar playing and great finger work. she so good of a guitar player and energetic on stage. i have one question for nancy. in the rollling stone magazine top 100 hundred guitar players, and she was a voter, how the heck she was left out of the top 100 guitar players and jimi hendrix was number 1. thats a degrace to guitar players . Nancy is so good and hendrix just a noise maker and shitty songs and heart so gifted and great performers. nancy if your reading this, how do you explain this!! your great and jimi so sorry of a musician. love to hear the response. Larry

Good on Gibson for trying new things. Not my kind of thing. I prefer professional interviewers over shapeless banter myself and folks for whom “like” isn’t every other word. Good luck to you. No idea who the other ladies are and am not compelled to find out
Your loss.
