Neil Young BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Neil Young is everywhere right now as he kicks off the second leg of the Love Earth Tour with his new band The Chrome Hearts. According to Neil Young News Thrashers Wheat, the tour leg launched August 8th in Charlotte, North Carolina, at the Corporation Music Pavilion, setting off a string of high-profile gigs across North America. The energy is palpable, with fans and reviewers alike buzzing about the revitalized sound and strong environmental message. Multiple sources are chronicling these concerts in real time, with setlists and reviews being updated continuously online. After Charlotte, Neil Young and The Chrome Hearts played a much-buzzed show at the Allianz Amphitheater in Richmond, Virginia, on August 10th. Social media has lit up with fans marveling that at 79, Young is “jamming as hard as ever” with his new outfit, as seen in a fresh Instagram Reel where concertgoers praised the intensity and the message of hope on stage.

More big dates are on the immediate horizon: on August 15, Neil Young is headlining the Blossom Music Center in Ohio, according to Canton's New Country. Meanwhile, his upcoming show at the legendary Jones Beach in New York on August 23rd is stirring up headlines, not just because it's Neil Young, but because this “Love Earth” world tour represents a new chapter for him post-pandemic, after last year’s abruptly canceled Crazy Horse tour due to health issues. Fans seem unified in their enthusiasm, entering ticket contests all over social and radio—ESPN Richmond just wrapped up a ticket giveaway for his recent Richmond show—while regional media count down the days to each stop, highlighting the unique blend of new songs and enduring hits on the setlists.

The Love Earth Tour is paired with Young’s eco-minded business push: he is expanding his HOMEGROWN Concessions initiative, bringing family farm food and sustainable practices to his concerts. According to Jones Beach, this partnership is a core part of the Love Earth ethos and getting attention for challenging how food is sourced at live music venues.

From a musical perspective, the Chrome Hearts lineup includes longtime collaborator Spooner Oldham and a band of trusted sidemen, previewing new material from a yet-to-be-announced album, alongside a career-spanning selection of classics. The upcoming Bethel Woods show on August 24th is already a contest prize on rock radio, evidence of the tour’s broad appeal and his enduring cultural resonance.

No indications of major controversy or unconfirmed drama have surfaced in the last few days. All eyes are on Neil Young as he demonstrates yet again why, after nearly six decades, he remains a force on stage and a progressive voice off it.
