Singer-songwriters David Crosby and Graham Nash have been harmonizing ever since Crosby, Stills & Nash formed in 1968. In addition to making music with CSN and CSN&Y, an ongoing element of their collaboration is recording and performing as a duo. That two-man configuration is celebrated in this concert event and with the launch of Crosby and Nash's new independent label - Blue Castle Records, distributed by ADA and ADA Global - with digital and vinyl versions of Another Stoney Evening which was re-issued March 22 of this year.

Broadcast live from the Palace Theatre in Stamford, Connecticut, this legendary rock duo will perform many songs from their extensive catalogue, including "Long Time Gone," "Marrakesh Express," "Almost Cut My Hair," and "Our House." Their magical vocal harmonies will evoke the excitement of 40 years of rock history in this one-of-a-kind performance. Don't miss this landmark concert, only on HDNet!
