WHEN Neil Young<\/strong> cut short last summer\u2019s tour with Crazy Horse<\/strong> \u2013 owing, it later transpired, to exhaustion \u2013 you could have been forgiven for thinking that one of music\u2019s most restless and hyper-productive artists would finally be forced to slow down. As if. Just a few months later, Young unveiled the Chrome Hearts<\/strong>, a new band who perhaps coincidentally share the same initials as their illustrious forebears. Ostensibly pulled together to honour existing commitments at last autumn\u2019s Farm Aid 2024<\/strong> and Harvest Moon Gathering<\/strong> benefit, the Chrome Hearts have since become Young\u2019s latest creative allies \u2013 rescuing him from a period of writer\u2019s block to produce Talkin To The Trees<\/strong> and, soon, his first world tour for six years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u2018New\u2019 band? Well, the Chrome Hearts comprise guitarist Micah Nelson<\/strong>, organist Spooner Oldham<\/strong>, bassist Corey McCormick<\/strong> and drummer Anthony LoGerfo<\/strong>. Oldham, of course, is a veteran of Young\u2019s bands, whose credits include (tellingly, as we shall discover) the Stray Gators<\/strong> lineup who recorded Harvest Moon<\/strong>. As members of Promise Of The Real<\/strong>, meanwhile, Nelson, McCormick and LoGerfo are relative newcomers, having backed Young on 2015\u2019s The Monsanto Years<\/a><\/strong>, 2016\u2019s Earth<\/strong><\/a> and 2017\u2019s The Visitor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
