Crankin' Up the Guitar Again! Neil Young Unleashes "Talking To The Trees" with His Stella Newbie Band

Hey there, music fans! Are you ready for a ride down memory lane with the one and only Neil Young? The 79-year-old Canadian-American folkrock legend, fondly referred as Neil, dropped a bombshell this November: he's cruising back onto the scene with a glitzy new band, The Chrome Hearts, and a fabulous new album, "Talking To The Trees". Buckle up as we take a peek at this anticipated release, and catch up on what's been cooking in ol' Neil's kitchen!

The Setup: Ten Tasty Tunes Followed by an Exciting Tour

Consider this album as the perfect snapshot of Neil's extensive 60-year career. With 4 band members contributing guitar, bass, organ, drums, and vocals, Neil's the mastermind behind the ten captivating songs. He's taken the reins, charming the world with his guitar, harp, piano, and vibraphone. Don't say we didn't warn ya, 'cause Neil's lyrics are as raw and powerful as ever!

Prepare yourself for some honest musings, critiques of the U.S. government, and a whole lotta love for mother nature. His controversial views, a hallmark of his career, continue to bleed onto this album, with jabs at the Trump administration - as Young has always been quick to do. In fact, his first single dropped just before Trump's inauguration, and you can guess what it's called: "Big Change".

Once the album's out, expect a wild and wacky world tour! The journey begins in Europe, stomping through Berlin (July 3) and Mönchengladbach (July 4), before making its way across the pond to the US and Canada. It ain't no walk in the park, but we wouldn't expect anything less from this electric guitar maestro.

Sound the Alarm: Welcome Back, Neil, or Will You Be Greeted with Closed Borders?

Here's where things get real interesting. Neil expressed genuine concerns about being welcomed back to the land of apple pie and freedom fries. You see, he's spoken out against the methods of the Trump administration, and that's left some bad blood brewing. He fears that once his European tour wraps up, he might be denied entry into the US or even slapped in the clink for his candid opinions. Time will tell if these fears are unfounded or well-justified.

Now, some folks might tell you that ain't possible, that U.S. citizens like Neil can't be flat-out denied entry. But Young's dual citizenship (Canada and the US) leaves him worrying about the potential consequences for his unabashed thoughts and actions. It's a complicated soup, and we'll just have to sit back and rumba to the unfolding story.

  1. The upcoming tour by Neil Young, spanning Europe and Canada, might lead to an intriguing encounter, as his criticism of the U.S. government, notably Donald Trump, could potentially affect his entry back into the U.S., given his dual citizenship with Canada.
  2. As he gears up for his new album and European tour, Neil Young continues to use his music as a platform for voicing his opinions, just like Elon Musk and Daryl Hannah, who are also known for speaking their minds on various entertainment topics and social issues in the U.S. and beyond.
