Neil Young is a long-time Canadian-American singer and songwriter whose music career started in the 1960s. Young's genre mainly focuses on folk, country, rock, and other types of music. He is a multi-Grammy winner and is nicknamed the "Godfather of Grunge". Young has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and snagged the 30th position in the Rolling Stones' 250 Greatest Guitarists of All Time list in 2023.

Towards the end of 2024, Neil Young started playing with a new band, Chrome Hearts. The band consisted of four members, including Micah Nelson, Spooner Oldham, Anthony LoGerfo, and Corey McCormick.

Neil Young and the band announced that they will be going on tour in 2025. The tour is set to begin on June 18, 2025, from Rättvik, Sweden. The tour is known as the Love Earth Tour. However, there is great news for Young fans planning to attend the tour in Ukraine.


More details about Neil Young's free Ukraine Love Earth Tour in 2025

The news of Neil Young hosting a free concert for his Ukraine fans was announced on his official website, Neil Young Archives. The statement on his website is as follows:

"Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts will open the upcoming Love Earth Tour of Europe in UKRAINE with a Free Concert for all! We are currently in talks and will make the announcement of details here at NYA."

The post reads:

"Under 47’s leadership, the US has lost its standing. Loyalists will never be stronger than Patriots, and Patriots are in the majority here in the USA. Our Patriots will take to the streets to peacefully demonstrate. There will be a moment of truth in our country and we will show the world who we really are. The USA will again be the leader of the Free World."

Since the Love Earth Tour dates have been announced, Neil Young's claim to open the tour with a show in Ukraine might mean that the dates for the Ukraine show will be set a few days before June 18, 2025. This will also be Young's first time playing with the band in the country.


Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts may be a newly formed band, but Young has confirmed that the band is working on an album that might be released in April 2025. If you want to give the Chrome Hearts a listen, their song Big Change was released to the public in January 2025.
