Neil Young and Crazy Horse last reunited in 2014, where they played London’s Hyde Park BST joined by The National, Tom Odell, Caitlin Rose, Phosphorescent and Flyte. Read everything that went down here.
The band also last released music in 2021 with ‘Barn’, which NME gave four stars: “As Young wrote in his 2012 memoir Waging Heavy Peace: “There is a big wind blowing today and I’m part of it. I want to make a difference.” This record lives up to those words. Of all the messages we should listen to on this album, the overriding one is that Neil Young remains as vital as he always has been.”
In other news, Young recently covered ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ on electric guitar in a ‘Stand For Peace’ video.
