The NightCat in Easton will host Pegi Young: musician, songwriter, and, yes, wife of the legendary folk rocker Neil Young, with her acoustic band the Survivors this Monday, April 2.
Pegi initially came to the public’s attention through her longstanding role as backup singer with Neil Young, her husband of three decades. But she is now on tour promoting her third album, which contains mostly originals, with a few covers, and her husband singing in the background for her.
Her new album, Bracing for Impact, has drawn rave reviews. David Browne gave it three stars in Rolling Stone, and wrote, “Neil Young’s wife grows more confident and, even better, more cantankerous. Gone are the wispy folky strains of 2007’s Pegi Young, replaced by an appealingly scruffy mix of low-fi Western swing, wry honky-tonk, and dusky blues shuffles.”
