Neil Young - Ohio Live Performance at Wang Theatre, Boston

Venue: Wang Theatre Location: Boston, Massachusetts, United States Date: July 12, 2018

In July 2018, Neil Young delivered an emotional solo performance of 'Ohio' at the Wang Theatre in Boston, MA. This live recording came shortly after the release of his album, 'The Visitor,' which debuted in December 2017. This album, brimming with a sense of urgency, was a response to the socio-political climate of the time, addressing contemporary issues while staying true to Young's roots. It's interesting to note that 'Ohio' has a rich history as it was initially written in response to the Kent State shootings in 1970, reflecting Young's long-standing commitment to social justice through music. By this point in his career, Young had fully embraced both the digital age and his classic acoustic sound, engaging audiences with a mix of nostalgia and urgent relevance.
