Neil Young and Crazy Horse announce first album in seven years

Neil Young has finally announced a new album in partnership with the band Crazy Horse! COLORADO is due to hit stores and digital platforms in October 2019, and the first single, “Rainbow of Colors”, will be released in August.

The new album was first announced on the Neil Young Archives website, which was described as “10 new songs, lasting between 3 and 13 minutes.” This will be the composer’s first work in partnership with the group since Psychedelic Pill, 2012.

Neil Young and Crazy Horse played a reunion concert in May 2018, with a publicly-acclaimed interplay between the musicians, and Young said that this was “the beginning of another beautiful chapter” in the history of this collaboration.

COLORADO will also be released along with a documentary about the production of the album. Mountaintop Sessions was directed by C.K. Vollick, and is one of 15 music films that Neil Young is involved in producing.
