Neil Young’s Chrome Hearts Announces Tour – And He’s Got a Heavy-Hitting Bassist On Board
Neil Young hasn’t been touring a whole lot in the past few years, but it looks like that’s changing. The “Heart of Gold” singer has announced a massive summer tour that will take him across Europe and North America.
Young will be joined by his newest band, The Chrome Hearts, which made their debut at Farm Aid last fall. Its lineup includes legendary Muscle Shoals organist Spooner Oldham on the Farfisa organ and Particle Kid’s Micah Nelson on guitar. The rhythm section includes drummer Anthony LoGerfo and bassist Corey McCormick, both of whom performed in Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real, which went on hiatus last summer. McCormick has also toured with WIllie Nelson and Chris Cornell while recording with Lady Gaga, Peter Frampton, and more.
After their Farm Aid performance, LiveforLiveMusic.com called The Chrome Hearts “much more subdued and sentimental” than the raucous sound of Crazy Horse. However, the group released a song called “big change” that is a big and boisterous as Young’s more rocking numbers.
The Love Earth World Tour begins in Europe on June 18th and will hit several countries before heading back to the U.S. in August. From there they will play coast to coast, wrapping up with a show at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California.

I used to cherish Young’s music. However, since his recent psychotic beliefs of cancel culture and censoring others free speech, he can suck my arse
Big Change is coming in the form of a pile of shit music in his granpaw diaper draws. This music sticks higher than Mount McKinley, which is the only welcome change, today. Neil’s three power chords and a whammy-bar slam sound no better than a difficult baby slamming a spoon around his highchair tray and screaming blather !!! Ghezz, Neil, GROW UP AND MAKE REAL MUSIC, … NOT NOISE !!!
