Legendary rocker Neil Young will embark on a solo tour that will kick off on April 15th in Durham, NC, and will include a performance at Detroit's Fox Theatre on Wednesday, May 4 at 7:30 p.m. The tour, which will include two nights at Boston's Wang Center and two shows at the prestigious and intimate Avery Fisher Hall in NYC's Lincoln Center, will cover songs from his current acclaimed album, Le Noise as well as classic tracks performed in both electric and acoustic settings. Young recently won his second-ever Grammy Award for "Best Rock Song" for "Angry World" - a track off Le Noise, which was also nominated for "Best Rock Album."

The eight-song Le Noise, among Young's most critically-embraced albums, is a collaboration between the acclaimed rock icon and musician, songwriter, and multiple Grammy Award-winning producer Daniel Lanois, known for his work with U2, Bob Dylan, Peter Gabriel, Brian Eno, Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson, The Neville Brothers and many others. Le Noise was released by Reprise Records on September 28th, 2010.
