À propos de cet audio
Neil Young has been dominating music headlines these past few days with a string of monumental live appearances and a surge of activity around his ongoing Love Earth World Tour. On July 11, Young headlined the BST Hyde Park festival in London, sharing the bill with fellow icons Van Morrison and Yusuf Cat Stevens—a trifecta that fans and critics alike are calling the event of the season according to Under the Radar and ContactMusic. The Hyde Park set was classic Neil: he stepped onto stage accompanied by his new band Chrome Hearts, and immediately plunged into an extended rendition of Ambulance Blues, a track he hasn’t played regularly in nearly two decades. The setlist featured a blend of fan-favorites, from Cinnamon Girl and Southern Man to The Needle and the Damage Done, Harvest Moon, and Rockin’ in the Free World. The performance was praised for its rawness and pure musical intent, with Mojo noting that Young rejected stage gimmicks and let his music carry the night.
Social media buzzed after the show, especially when reports surfaced that Young’s concert was reportedly cut short by festival organizers due to Hyde Park’s strict curfew. Parade covered how he played beyond his allotted time until organizers ended the performance abruptly—an incident reminiscent of the time Bruce Springsteen and Paul McCartney had their own plugs pulled at the same venue. Fan-shot videos from the night flooded TikTok and Twitter, with thousands sharing clips of Old Man and After the Gold Rush and celebrating Young’s legendary status.
This Hyde Park date closely followed his headline slot at Glastonbury on June 28, a booking that was notably meaningful for the Eavis family, with Michael Eavis naming Young his favorite artist. Media coverage from ContactMusic and Mojo underscores how only die-hard Young fans remained for this set, further reinforcing his place as an artist’s artist.
On the business front, the Love Earth World Tour is rolling full steam ahead after a health-related break last year. Neil Young and Chrome Hearts are set for a full calendar of North American dates in August and September, including highly anticipated stops at Jones Beach in New York, Chicago’s Huntington Bank Pavilion, and a sold-out show at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. AOL and Pavilion Northerly Island both highlight the ongoing tour’s popularity, fueled in part by the recent release of Young’s new single, big change, and anticipation for the upcoming album Talkin’ To The Trees. Press and fans alike are calling Chrome Hearts, featuring Micah Nelson and Spooner Oldham, Young’s liveliest band in years.
Young’s name continues to trend across music and pop culture platforms after these performances, with commentators consistently reinforcing his legacy as a troubadour who remains relevant, unpredictable, and fiercely independent—even at 79. There are no confirmed reports this week of album delays, collaborations, or major business moves outside the tour, though speculation persists about more surprise releases and candid onstage commentary in the tour’s next legs. If the past week is any indication, Neil Young isn’t slowing down, and his every move is being watched, recorded, and celebrated as rock history in real time.
