Nancy Lamoureux Wilson (born March 16, 1954) is an American singer and guitarist who, with her older sister Ann, became a part of the Seattle band Heart.
Dreamboat Annie came out on Mushroom Records in 1976, and their second single, "Crazy On You", was a hit.
While Ann is the lead singer on most Heart recordings, Nancy is the lead vocalist on the hits "These Dreams", "Stranded", "There's The Girl" and "Will You Be There (In The Morning)" and frequently performs background vocals. Nancy is the band's rhythm guitarist. In 1999, Nancy Wilson released "Live at McCabe's Guitar Shop," her only solo live album to date.
She was born in San Francisco, California, married Rolling Stone writer Cameron Crowe in 1986, and gave birth to twin boys in 2000 - at the age of 46.
Nancy composes music for most of Crowe's films including Vanilla Sky and Elizabethtown. She also had a cameo in Crowe's "The Wild Life" (Rick's wife) and "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" (beautiful girl in Corvette).
