Neil Young & Crazy Horse announce new album; Crosby, Stills & Nash announce tour (dates)

CSN

Crosby, Stills and Nash have an extensive amount of upcoming international tour dates for 2012, including a Northeast run in June which includes dates in New York, Connecticut and New Jersey. None of those shows are in NYC but a few of the NJ shows come pretty close. At the end of the month the band will play Wellmont Theatre on June 26 and 27 in Montclair, Count Basie Theatre on June 29 in Red Bank, and Borgata Spa & Resort on June 30 in Atlantic City. Tickets for the 6/26 and 6/27 Wellmont shows go on sale Friday (3/23) at noon. Ticket info for the other shows is not available yet. All dates are listed below.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse – Americana
Americana

In related news, Neil Young, who is not currently acting as a member of CSN(Y), he recently announced the release of Americana (due out June 5), his first album with Crazy Horse members since 2003’s Greendale and first with the full band (Billy Talbot, Ralph Molina and Frank “Poncho” Sampedro) since 1996’s Broken Arrow. That’s the artwork above. The album features reinterpretations of traditional American folk songs including “This Land Is Your Land,” “Oh Susannah,” “Clementine,” “High Flyin’ Bird,” and “She’ll Be Comin’ Round The Mountain.” A press release explains the album’s concept:

“What ties these songs together is the fact that while they may represent an America that may no longer exist,” says a press release announcing the new album.”The emotions and scenarios behind these songs still resonate with what’s going on in the country today with equal, if not greater impact nearly 200 years later. The lyrics reflect the same concerns and are still remarkably meaningful to a society going through economic and cultural upheaval, especially during an election year. They are just as poignant and powerful today as the day they were written.”

Rolling Stone mentions that though Neil Young and Crazy Horse performed live for the first time since 2004 last month at a Paul McCartney tribute in LA (they played “I Saw Her Standing There”), they have no touring plans. Check out the tracklist below.

In more related news, that Buffalo Springfield tour is apparently not happening any time soon.
