real young & lazy horse (ny, usa) at Marrickville Bowling Club

For the first time, Real Young & Lazy Horse are bringing the Horse to Australia.

Making their debut Down Under this January, the New York DIY lifers are an unreasonably faithful, occasionally feral reincarnation of Neil Young & Crazy Horse at their most ragged & transcendent.

Playing marathon sets for the love of the ride — the band doesn’t just cover the storied songbook — they become it. With uncanny renditions, slow-burning solos, ripping jams & a chemistry you can’t look away from, the shows routinely spill overtime as sets weave through familiar favourites & deep cuts alike.

To categorise them as simply a ‘tribute act’ would be missing the point. Rolling Stone Magazine calls them “one of the most fun live acts in rock.”

You don’t need to know Neil’s music to feel what happens when these guys take the stage — though it helps if you want to sing along. This is the Horse running wild. Don’t be denied.
