Crosby, Stills & Nash is no longer, says Graham Nash

The musician Graham Nash categorically rejected the idea that his original group embarked on another tour.

"Crosby, Stills & Nash will never play another note together," Nash said.

The 76-year-old, who has been recording solo albums for decades, has been touring as a solo artist for two and a half years.

"I can not wait to get on stage. I am a communicator. I am a musician. That's what I've been doing all my life, "said Nash at the San Diego Union-Tribune.

Crosby, Stills & Nash was formed in Los Angeles in 1968. The band played together for decades with Canadian musician Neil Young.

Their history has been marked by conflicting and conflicting relationships. Nash, who has often played the role of peacemaker, said the fighting had reached their course.

"[Y]You can only do it for so long without anything coming back. And when things came back, I passed. I am too old to deal with bulls anymore. If you want to make music, fantastic. If you want to call people and attack people's girlfriends, go straight ahead (expletive). "

In 2014, Crosby would have described actress Daryl Hannah, Young's girlfriend (the current wife), as a "purely toxic predator." He later apologized.

After a performance in Washington, DC, at the end of 2015, CSN ended its days. A year before this performance, Young said that CSNY would never play together again.

Nash said the "topical" and political songs that characterized the band 's early recordings would never resonate with the public of today. In the 1960s and 1970s, he said, young people were united by their opposition to the Vietnam War.

Individual members, however, never lost their interest in politics.

In 2017, for example, David Crosby was involved in an enmity on Twitter with Trump's supporter Ted Nugent.

"Nugent is a brainless moron. … I can think it without much effort, "wrote Crosby.

In 2016, Neil Young called on President Obama to intervene and settle a dispute over an oil pipeline being built on an Indian reserve.

Nash, a liberal and inveterate British, has made fun of President Trump.

"I've been an American citizen for 40 years, but I think this great country deserves better than Donald Trump. It undermines the environment, civil rights and women's issues. Republicans will long struggle with his legacy.

Nash has often expressed his opinion on various topics. When he was promoting his solo album "Wild Tales" several years ago, Nash talked about his 20 years of cocaine use, how his opinion was shaped in part by the time he spent in jail. his father when he was a child and through the ups and downs of his life. relationships with former members of the group.

Nash is currently touring with Bruce Springsteen's former guitarist, Shane Fontayne, and organist, Todd Caldwell, both already past by CSN.
