The two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee is experiencing an unprecedented surge not only in prolificacy, but in creativity. David Crosby returns this summer with incredible new album titled For Free out 7/23/21. Vinyl to be released February 11, 2022.
In Crosby’s unparalleled six-decade career, the native Californian has created songs that resonate as indelible cultural touchstones for more than three generations, not only as a solo artist, but as a founding member of The Byrds in the mid-60s, Crosby, Stills & Nash (recipients of the Grammy for best new artist in 1969), and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. He’s collaborated with dozens of artists, including Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour, Phil Collins, Elton John and Carole King.
The folk rock pioneer, who was inducted into the prestigious Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2009, has also served as our social conscience, not only eloquently writing about societal issues on such songs as “Almost Cut My Hair” and “Wooden Ships,” but continuously donating concert proceeds to like-minded causes. His towering influence and brilliant ability to capture the spirit of our times in his music remains undiminished.
Croz says about the track “River Rise”: “I have been pestering my son James for years to write us a hit. I think he finally did it with ‘River Rise’. He had all but the second verse which our friend Michael McDonald came up with. Mike then did spectacular harmony vocals on it as well. I think these songs on the record prove that James has matured as writer and is at least as good as I am if not better.”
