Neil Young

In the Milwaukee concert on November 30, 2014, Neil Young performed 'Hold Back the Tears' with Promise of the Real, right in the thick of a tour promoting the album 'The Monsanto Years.' This album, released earlier in 2015, reflects Young's ongoing commitment to environmental issues, a passion he'd embraced throughout his career. Interestingly, 'The Monsanto Years' addresses the agribusiness giant's controversial practices, an extension of Young's activism. By collaborating with Promise of the Real, a band led by Willie Nelson's son Lukas, Young brought a fresh sound while maintaining his signature folk-rock roots. This concert was not just a musical event; it was a powerful statement, amplifying his voice on important issues and demonstrating that music can be a rallying cry for change. No wonder his fans are always excited to see what he'll say or play next!
