“AMERICANA” was produced by Neil and John Hanlon along with Mark Humphreys, and engineered by John Hanlon with John Hausmann and Jeff Pinn. It was recorded at Audio Casa Blanca by John Hanlon.

Fans purchasing their concert tickets on-line will receive a copy of the brand new CD – AMERICANA, available in stores Tuesday, June 5th, released by Reprise Records.

Americana – pre-stream (Tom Dooley et al.)

not only Irish do it:

www.irishtimes.com/theticket/neil-young/

some liner notes:

“What ties these songs together is the fact that while they may represent an America that may no longer exist, the emotions and scenarios behind these songs still resonate with what’s going on in the country today with equal, if not greater impact nearly 200 years later. The lyrics reflect the same concerns and are still remarkably meaningful to a society going through economic and cultural upheaval, especially during an election year. They are just as poignant and powerful today as the day they were written.”
