Neil Young + pandemic + 150-year-old barn = rock magic you didn't know you needed.
The documentary provides an unprecedented glimpse into Young and Crazy Horse’s creative process, as they took to tape in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains during the Covid-19 pandemic. Kicking off with a note of gratitude from Young (“I’m so glad we’re fuckin’ here!”), the trailer shows what things were like as the legendary band got back into their element, in the wild, making music in a restored, 19th-century log barn under a full, glowing moon. The film captures the group—a 50-year-old musical family that includes, Billy Talbot, Ralph Molina and Nils Lofgren —building the powerful new record, but also their easy humour and enduring brotherhood. - The Sound Cafe (www.thesoundcafe.com)

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The barn was built in the 1860s and required extensive restoration before recording—Young specifically wanted its 'living' sound.
This marked Crazy Horse's first studio album with Nils Lofgren since 1971, completing a half-century circle that most bands never survive long enough to close.
