Hawks & Doves
Neil Young
The songs reflect a divide between gentle introspection and a rowdy, rebellious spirit. Recorded during a period of change, the unpolished tracks lean into traditional American roots music.
As a brief diary entry, the project captures the songwriter recalibrating his vision at the start of a new decade. The stripped-back approach highlights his ability to shift between varied, distinct styles without losing his core identity.
