Neil Young

In June 2015, Neil Young performed 'Cowgirl in the Sand' live at the LA Forum, showcasing his signature rock edge alongside the band Promise of the Real. At this point in his career, Young had just released the album 'The Monsanto Years,' which marked a notable shift towards environmental activism through music. The live rendition of his classic song mixes nostalgia with fresh energy, as it draws from the deep wells of Young's 1969 work with Crazy Horse. This performance serves as a testament to his enduring relevance; Young's ability to evolve while remaining true to his roots is impressive. Additionally, collaborating with Promise of the Real, fronted by Lukas Nelson, further emphasizes Young's connection to the next generation of musicians. This blending of old and new highlights how Young continues to inspire and engage audiences, remaining a powerful voice in the music industry.
