    Neil Young is in a New York state of mind.

    This September, the two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee is playing not one, not two but three shows in The Empire State.

    First up, the 78-year-old Godfather of Grunge will headline at this year’s Farm Aid alongside fellow board members Willie Nelson , John Mellencamp and Dave Matthews (with Tim Reynolds) on Saturday, Sept. 21.

    Shortly after, the “Heart of Gold” singer heads south for a pair of concerts at Port Chester, NY’s Capitol Theatre on Monday, Sept. 23 and Tuesday, Sept. 24 with his group, The Chrome Hearts.

    The band is made up of multi-instrumentalist Micah Nelson (Willie’s son), Promise Of The Real drummer Anthony Logerfo and bassist Corey McCormick.

    These newly announced Port Chester shows come on the heels of Young and Crazy Horse’s summer 2024 ‘Love Earth Tour’ cancellation.

    “I was doing great and we were moving right along,” Young said about the tour in a late August Zoom conference before announcing the new gigs. “Everybody’s loving the shows. Then I just woke up one morning on the bus and I said, ‘I can’t do this. I gotta stop.’ It was like I felt sick when I thought of going on stage. My body was telling me, ‘You gotta stop.’ So I listened to my body.”

    “But now I’m starting to feel like I could do it again and that’s a great feeling,” he added. “Not all of Crazy Horse — this happened to a couple of us, and we’re not all the way back. Crazy Horse will be back, god willing. And we’ll play more.”

    In the Zoom, Young hinted that, at the upcoming shows, he will “play a little bit of acoustic, and then have the band come out and play…They won’t be marathons. They won’t be two hours and 10 minutes of blasting rock and roll like it was with Crazy Horse.”

    Earlier this year, the New York Post reviewed Neil Young and Crazy Horse’s ‘Love Earth’ concert at Forest Hills; they described the show as a mixture of “unfiltered rockers (and) sensitive country ballads.”
