Courtesy of British Summer Time Hyde ParkThe first show of the 2019 edition of London’s British Summer Time Hyde Park concert series has been confirmed and it’s a biggie.
Bob Dylan and Neil Young, arguably two of the greatest and most prolific songwriters of the rock era, will co-headline the event, scheduled to take place on Friday, July 12.
Tickets for the concert will go on sale this Friday, November 30. Dylan will be backed by his longtime touring group, while Young will be accompanied by Promise of the Real, the Americana act that features Willie Nelson‘s sons Lukas and Micah. Over the past several years, Neil has released three albums that he recorded with Promise of the Real: 2015’s The Monsanto Years, 2016’s Earth and 2017’s The Visitor.
The full list of British Summer Time Hyde Park shows will be announced soon.
The Hyde Park concert is the first 2019 date announced for both Dylan and Young. Neil currently has no other shows on his schedule, while Bob is in the middle of a seven-show stand at New York City’s Beacon Theatre that winds down on December 1. He’ll wrap up his 2018 itinerary with a December 3 concert in Philadelphia.
