Pegi Young will release her third album ‘Bracing For Impact’ later this month.
The album will feature her band The Survivors featuring the musicians she shares with her husband Neil, Spooner Oldham on piano, Rick Rosas on bass, plus guitarist Kelvin Holly and drummer Phil Jones.
Pegi wrote eight of the 11 songs on the album. Neil Young wrote ‘Doghouse’ and plays harmonica and sings backing vocals on the track. Neil also plays electric guitar on ‘Lie’ and ‘Song For A Baby Girl’ as well as harmonica on ‘Number 9 Train’.
Pegi has also chosen to cover Danny Whitten’s Crazy Horse classic ‘I Don’t Want To Talk About It’. Crazy Horse minus Neil Young released the song on their 1971 album. Rod Stewart had a major hit with it in 1977.
“I’m just trying to tell some stories and make music that I can get behind,” Pegi says in a statement.
