The Second Annual Evening Celebrating The Music Of Neil Young

For the second year in a row DC-based band Jackie and The Treehorns will head up this jam-packed tribute concert to legendary iconoclast Neil Young. From Neil's work with Buffalo Springfield and CSNY to his raucous feedback entrenched garage rock heyday(s) with Crazy Horse, you can expect to hear "the hits" as well as some of his deeper cuts.

The show will kick off with solo acoustic tunes and slowly transition into the rootsier side of Neil's early 70's work before fulling plugging in and kicking out the jams Crazy Horse style. From "Sugar Mountain" and "Old Man" to "Cinnamon Girl" and "Rockin In the Free World" casual to hardcore Neil fans will not leave disappointed.

"Singer/songwriter Neil Young is sometimes visionary, sometimes flaky, sometimes both at once, but he has never been boring. Indeed, Neil Young has weathered runs of critical and popular ambivalence only to be vindicated by being periodically "rediscovered" by young musicians and fans. He has maintained a large following since the early '70s with music in three basic styles — solo acoustic ballads, sweet country rock, and lumbering garage rock (with some experimental music side trips), all topped by his high voice — and he veers from one to another in unpredictable phases. His subject matter also shifts from personal confessions to allusive stories to bouncy throwaways. A dedicated primitivist, Young is constantly proving that simplicity is not always simple."
