Meet the Band Picked to Open for Neil Young
One of the best reasons to get your hungover, sleep-deprived body out of bed before noon for day three of Outside Lands, Infantree was recently picked to open for Neil Young on the Canadian leg of his tour with Crazy Horse and few U.S. dates.
The band hits the stage at Outside Lands at noon Sunday. We caught up with them for a brief email interview and got the kind of brief, snarky answers you’d expect from a gang of young bucks who just hit it big (or maybe we’re just awful at doing email interviews).
