Neil Young solo, acoustic + electric. A once in a lifetime opportunity to experience his spellbinding serenade up close and intimate. This shape-shifting troubadour has spent his career timelessly cultivating a body of work as diverse as it is sprawling.
He is a rock icon who has managed to transcend the trends of every generation he’s written for.
With an extensive back-catalogue of critically acclaimed albums (both as a solo artist and as a key band member) and tens of millions of records sold, Neil Young is a singer-songwriter of extraordinary influence over five decades in music.
Young and bassist Bruce Palmer formed Buffalo Springfield with Steven Stills, Dewey Martin and Richie Furay. A short-lived folk-rock band with country leanings, Buffalo Springfield released a self-titled debut (1966), Again (1967) and Last Time Around (1968). The first two received great critical acclaim, but the latter was made as the band was arguing and on the verge of splitting up, so was not so successful.
Young then started a solo career, with an eponymous debut, followed by his first solo classic – Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere (1969). He then joined up with Stephen Stills again, who had released a new album with Graham Nash and David Crosby as Crosby, Stills & Nash. Now rechristened Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, their 1970 album Déjà Vuwas another entry into what is now termed the ‘classic rock’ canon. Aided by Stills and Nils Lofgren, Young released arguably his solo masterpiece the same year – After The Gold Rush. With a new backing band, 1972 saw the release of Young’s most commercially successful album – the country-tinged Harvest, boosted by a No.1 single in Heart of Gold.
