Heart is Indexbit"comin' straight on for you."

The 2013 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees will perform with special guests Cheap Trick on the upcoming Royal Flush tour. The 52-city tour kicks off in Greenville, South Carolina, on April 20 and will visit North American cities including San Antonio, Atlanta, Boston and Toronto. The tour is set to conclude in Morrison, Colorado, on Sept. 22.

"Excited to announce the Royal Flush Tour 2024 with special guests (Cheap Trick) on select North American dates and (Squeeze) in the UK!" the band wrote on Instagram Monday. "Can’t wait 💜"

Heart will also serve as a supporting act for rock bands Def Leppard and Journey on select dates.

Citi presales will begin at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, and an artist presale (using the code DREAMS) begins Wednesday at 10 a.m. Public ticket sales will start at 10 a.m. Friday at heart-music.com.

With a career that's lasted five decades since forming in Seattle, Heart will be playing their catalog of classics, which includes 20 Top 40 singles. The band is known for both hard-hitting, guitar-driven rockers such as “Magic Man," "Straight On," “Barracuda" and “Crazy on You,” as well as their softer sound on songs such as "These Dreams."

The band's present lineup features Ann Wilson (lead vocals, flute), Nancy Wilson (rhythm, lead and acoustic guitar, backing and lead vocals), Ryan Wariner (lead and rhythm guitar), Ryan Waters (guitars), Paul Moak (guitars, keyboards, backing vocals), Tony Lucido (bass, backing vocals) and Sean T. Lane (drums).

Like Heart, Cheap Trick was formed in 1973, miles away in Rockford, Illinois. They're also Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees, having been honored in 2016.

The four-man band has sold 20 million albums worldwide and amassed hits such as “I Want You to Want Me," "Surrender," "Ain't That a Shame" and "The Flame."

Cheap Trick consists of lead singer Robin Zander, guitarist Rick Nielsen, bassist Tom Petersson and Daxx Nielsen, the guitarist's son who replaced original drummer Bun E. Carlos. Daxx has been the band's touring drummer since 2010.
