Neil Young and his band, Crazy Horse, have embarked on their first national road trip in a decade this spring, a return to the plans that were in motion before the pandemic disrupted their reunion.
The 16-date tour kicked off with two nights in San Diego on April 24-25 and will conclude in Chicago on May 23.
The tour comes hot on the heels of the release of the latest Neil Young & Crazy Horse album, titled Fu##in’ Up. The album will initially have a limited release on vinyl exclusively for Record Store Day on April 20, followed by an all-format release on April 26.
The album comprises reimagined versions of songs from the band’s past, recorded in 2023. Young’s last full tour with Crazy Horse took place in 2014; in subsequent years, they performed a handful of shows in central California and Canada. Plans for a wider tour in 2020 were put on hold due to the pandemic. Even after the situation improved, Young expressed his concerns about potential health risks to his audience and opted against the tour. However, in the summer of 2023, he embarked on a solo tour and later reunited with Crazy Horse for two shows to commemorate the 50th anniversary of L.A.’s famous Roxy. The band also performed a private show in Toronto for a birthday celebration in November.
The current lineup of Crazy Horse includes the addition of Nils Lofgren alongside original members Billy Talbot and Ralph Molina. The tracklist for the new album, which features “familiar songs” in addition to the title track, has not yet been revealed. However, the album will consist of nine tracks, spread across two LPs in the vinyl version.
Young expressed his excitement about the project, and stated, “In the spirit it’s offered… I made this for the Horse lovers. I can’t stop it. The horse is runnin’. What a ride we have. I don’t want to mess with the vibe. I am so happy to have this to share.”
