Neil Young to headline Hard Rock Calling

Neil Young

Neil Young who is also set to perform at Glastonbury and the Isle Of Wight Festival, is set to play the Hyde Park festival alongside fellow aging rocker, Bruce Springsteen.

The self proclaimed hobo rocker, Seasick Steve is also set to appear with the latest NME darlings, Fleet Foxes, and The Pretenders.

Speaking about their appearance, singer of The Pretenders, Chrissie Hynde said: “We would play a garden shed to be on a bill with Neil Young but Hyde Park – summer – with ‘The Loner’. This is what makes a thousand hours on tour buses all worthwhile. This is why people get in bands.”

Hard Rock Calling 2009 will take place at Hyde Park in London from Saturday 27th to Sunday 28th June.

Tickets for the Neil Young day will go on sale from Friday 13th March, priced at £45.

All passes for the Bruce Springsteen day have sold out.
