King of Alt Country, the one and only Neil Young will head to Bluesfest Byron Bay on Friday April 14 2017 with Promise of the Real to play a MASSIVE three hour set.If you wern’t planning to join us on our annual Easter road trip, this may be the news that helps you make up your mind.
Young, and Promise of the Real add to an already impressive bill that includes Santana, Zac Brown Band, Patti Smith, Mary J. Blige, Buddy Guy (exclusive), The Doobie Brothers and many more.
Bluesfest has once again proved it is capable of bringing together a line up of artists that is as good as their best ever. And we hear there’ll be another major announcement scheduled coming on Sunday.
For this guitar-centric, full steam-ahead and highly-charged concert, Young is joined by Promise of the Real, an LA-based rock band fronted by Lukas Nelson (vocals/guitar), along with Micah Nelson (guitar, vocals) and their band. They have performed with their father, Willie Nelson and Young on previous occasions and wowed Bluesfest with their exceptional sets this year.
