Ann Wilson and Tripsitter Announce Album Consecrated Ground

Rock icon Ann Wilson has announced a new album with her collaborative band Tripsitter, titled "Consecrated Ground," set for release on August 14. The nine-track album marks the second project from Wilson and the psychedelic rock outfit, following their 2023 debut "Another Door."

The album's lead single, "I Will Not Be Coming Back," is now available. According to a statement, the song explores themes of liberation, transformation, and self-determination, serving as a powerful introduction to the new record. The full album is described as a fearless collection blending heavy rock, psychedelia, blues, and raw emotional storytelling.

This announcement arrives during a significant period for Wilson. Earlier this year, she returned to touring with Heart following a successful recovery from cancer. She has also recently launched a podcast, "After Dinner Thinks," and is the subject of an upcoming documentary, "In My Voice." The film, narrated by Wilson, traces her journey from childhood to stardom using personal archives, home movies, and previously unseen footage.

Wilson and Tripsitter have also scheduled a North American tour to support the album. The tour is set to begin on September...
