About Me

Ann Wilson has recorded her first-ever solo effort 'Hope & Glory,' due September 11th on Zoë/ Rounder Records. The arresting vocalist branches out with a socially conscious and thought-provoking album of songs she selected to inspire the appropriately titled 'Hope & Glory.'Produced by Ben Mink (k.d. lang, Feist), Hope & Glory features guest appearances from iconic artists Elton John, Gretchen Wilson, Alison Krauss, Rufus Wainwright, Ann’s sister Nancy Wilson and others on unique renditions of songs made famous by Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Neil Young and more.“Each of these songs holds a special place in my soul…At one time or another every one of them has kept me up at night to the point of exasperation and will not be banished, as I lay sleepless on my pillow. Such songs as these carry me through my life, and they are a standard to which all new music I hear and write must compare.” – Ann WilsonWith the state of our times in mind, Wilson sings the story of a fallen soldier (“Where to Now St. Peter”), recounts hardship and desperation (“Immigrant Song”) and takes an angel’s view of a battlefield (“War of Man”). Wilson ties the entire body of work together with her stirring original song entitled “Little Problems, Little Lies”, a harrowing soldier’s eye view of life on the front lines.

Goodbye Blue Sky

On Pink Floyd's The Wall, "Goodbye Blue Sky" is a pretty short track, but I always got so into the song that I wished it were longer. For this album, I wanted to extend the song and develop the nightm...

War Of Man

A great song from a great writer -- Neil Young -- and one of my favorites. Our version has extra added angry because it was written about the first Gulf War and here we all go again - except much wor...

Isolation

For me this brilliant John Lennon song was always a very personal, very human response to being messed with -- to being totally kicked around. It's about what it feels like to be on "the human trampol...

Darkness Darkness

Here's one of two songs on the album made famous by the Youngbloods - a band I really loved back in the day. This one was written by the group's Jesse Colin Young. As Ben said about this song when we...

Get Together

We realized that doing this Youngbloods smash -- written by Dino Valenti -- could be inviting scrutiny because it's sort of the ultimate hippie anthem with its whole peace and love type message. So it...

We Gotta Get Out Of This Place

I was looking for a song that would relate to the whole idea of just busting out of this negative cycle we're in these days. It's my way of saying, "Let's just get out of this damned repeating cycle."...
